[clue-talk] Enterprise level hosting provider

Hello everyone,

At work, we are looking into other enterprise level hosting options
for our web applications, and I was wondering if anyone had any that
they would recommend.

Our applications run in a LAMP environment, currently running on
CentOS. At this time, we are not interested in hosting and or
maintaining our own hardware, but rather have a provider that will
take care of that side of the equation. We can maintain the OS and
software on the servers themselves, once they are in place.

We would like a setup where we can run a few virtual machines on the
physical hardware, to better utilize the resources. Our current host,
provides this capability by running VMWare ESX on the hardware, then
creating multiple virtual machines on that physical system. A VMWare
solution would work, but we would be open to other options that
provide a similar end result.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
