Everything is perfect for me except virtualization.
My budget is up to 25 for the similar plan but the virtualization should be lxc.

Out of curiosity, why LXC specifically?
I think you'll be hard pressed to find LXC based "virtualization" actually being sold right now. Even with the significant improvements that showed up in LXC 2.0, the tool isn't really built for providing the isolation needed to successfully sell VPSes the same way Virtuozzo is, and seems harder to totally secure. The tooling also isn't really there from a provider stand-point, so far as I have seen. Why not just get a KVM VPS and run LXC on that?
LaunchVPS and VaporNode are both offering LXC.
Huh, well I guess I stand corrected then.
LXC isn't the problem here...it's the budget.
We also us LXC, LXC is becoming the norm now instead of OpenVZ
@launchvps
I think it's because LXC has the ability to run on higher kernels?
You weren't far off-base with this, though.
LXC is still maturing. We find small things that do not work from time to time and will switch customers to KVM. But, overall it is a good solution for general purpose Linux VPS use cases.
Also, there are security concerns if you do not provision the containers appropriately. This is why we currently do not offer instant provisioning for LXC containers. This will change in the next 1-2 weeks as we are working on further automation, but for now, extra steps must be taken manually.
That is a good point.
I was just curious as I have yet to see a request for LXC over OVZ. Was interested in the use case.
just curious, which kernel version you're running lxc host? and is that Ubuntu node? thanks
Openvz doesn't support newer kernel.
Lxc vps is for general use. Lxc can run inside lxc.
Why is lxc more expensive than openvz.
similar plan for KVM is only 35$.
So how much is it for lxc?
Yeah.
I guess it's Ubuntu 16.04 ,with kernel 4.4 and lxd 2.0 .
We use Proxmox for our virtualization platform. The kernel is the 4.4 series. I believe the Proxmox kernel is built from Ubuntu sources.
@xiyan I'm just saying that your budget/resource expectations are too low for us.
