2 Hosting Providers Projects
3 .
4 .PP
5 While hosting a server at home has its benefits (and its charms),
6 some interesting hosting providers do a good job at sharing all
7 the fun that hosting servers can have while still handling the
8 long-winged work of keeping the hypervisors up and running.
9 .
10 .PP
11 Efforts also coming from the community that sometimes take part
12 into the project, or in reverse, hosting providers contributing
13 to help community projects, either through funds or bug-fixing.
14 .
15 .IP "sdf.org "
16 Around since as early as 1987, the Super Dimension Fortress
17 describes itself as a public access supercomputing center.
18 An invitation to jump both feet into the UNIX culture featuring
19 games, email, usenet, chat, bboard, gopherspace, webspace,
20 programming utilities, archivers, browsers, and more.
21 A different sense of community than the one offered by social
22 networks.
23 .
24 .IP "sdfeu.org "
25 Joint effort with the north Amercian sdf.org, the European
26 counterpart will have a better network latency for European,
27 Middle east, and African users.
28 .
29 .IP "grex.org "
30 Grex brings democracy to hosting, a concept little explored by
31 commercial hosting providers: open access, but also owned by
32 its members who can vote on what to plan next for Grex.
33 Also a good pretext to get around a good meal during the Grex
34 conferences.
35 .
36 .IP "openbsd.amsterdam "
37 A hosting provider running OpenBSD for its entire stack,
38 including the hypervisor itself: \fCvmm(4)\fR. It permits
39 its user to connect directly onto the hypervisor through
40 SSH and run commands such as \fCvmctl vm02 restart\fR.
41 .
42 .IP "blinkenshell.org "
43 Younger by a few years, this open shell project lets you
44 give Linux a try. Occasion to make someone discover the
45 world of command-line and programming through the editor
46 and compilers installed up there.
47 .
48 .IP "prgmr.com "
49 While keeping a commercial model, this Xen-based hosting
50 provider offers a command-line approach to hosting, and
51 consider the user as a respectable admin rather than a
52 supermarket customer.
