Hi I have a little reseller company , and one of my client contacted me about java hosting and this is something that i don't know. this is his exact quetion: I need to host a J2EE Application built with JBOSS server. Code (markup): I have did some research and find mochahost provide java hosting : http://www.mochahost.com/java_jg.php is this package "Business Plan + JBoss JVM" enough for him to rung it's application? or do he need VPS or something else? Thank you in advance
Would Depend on the size of the application and its Resource Requirement's if you can get some information from him about the application and its CPU/Ram usage then we can tell you weather it would fit on a Shared Hosting or a VPS. However overall a VPS would give him more control, however he would need to know how to setup Java or find a Managed VPS that will do it for him.
Basically, for Java hosting few things are required MySQL and PostgreSQL databases. The web hosting provider you choose must offer you enough support for Java Servlets, struts, J2EE etc. In my opinion, dedicated server or a VPS would be a great choice, depending on your budget. If you opt for a shared hosting package you may have to deal with some issues and the java applications need much memory. Hence, it would be best to opt for a VPS or a dedicated server hosting.
