Suggestion for virtualization ( single vps )

Mridul

Hello,

I wish to run a single KVM VPS over my dedicated server.
What are the possible options ( apart from proxmox ) ?

Please suggest.

I’m assuming you mean you want a control panel right? If so Virtualizor is probably the cheapest option out there for a single server and VM.

Yes. control panel to mange a single large VPS over the physical server.

Yeah i’d go Virtualizor, Solus.io is much more expensive, solusvm is no longer updated other than for security and quite frankly as the days go by we get nearer and nearer to the inevitable announcement that solusvm is being discontinued and everyone is to be forced to solus.io... that’ll be a very interesting day indeed.

Could use Cockpit as well. https://cockpit-project.org/
or ESXI? https://www.vmware.com/go/get-free-esxi

I hate the crummy Virtualizor:

• ISO doesn't work at half of the providers.
• Incomplete information about IP address: missing subnet and gateway information.
• Unclear graphs about bandwidth usage: only monthly graph, no hourly graph.

SolusIO is not ready for production. I found 6+ bugs in a few hours of an invited SolusIO trial:

• Errors during VM creation and deletion.
• Duplicate IP assigned to two VMs.
• Occasionally the network speed drops to 10 KB/s range.
• No IPv6 assignment feature - only a single address.
• Realtime graph has missing values.
• Billing inaccuracies when the VM is resized.

Someone needs to start a Change.org petition to keep Solus VM - the clean and easy to use control panel (except that Virmach hides the username which hinders usability).

SolusIO was released long before being ready I agree; but this also realistically backs the reality that they want to get SolusIO out there and replace SolusVM asap, it's going to happen and it's going to be one hell of a shit show for a load of providers, a great portion of which are from round these parts.

Plesk is behind SolusIO, so it worth waiting until we see a complete platform.

I’d vouch for ESXi. If you want to have something near native, great 3D acceleration and other goodies, this is an absolute recommandation. I use it for years for private use. Much better than Proxmox.
