That's python as in straight up mod_python or python CGI on virtual hosting. Very 1997. It won't run zope or plone very easily if at all. Pretty much any reseller can give you the same deal. There are literally thousands of $8/month "deals." mod_python and python CGI have been pretty standard offerings on any host for a decade. And pretty much everybody who gives you that deal is a reseller. Your site will run on the same server as 100 others and your site will be periodically unavailable several times a day as one of those sites sucks down all the resources, even when "jailed" or "quota'd" or "quarantined." Repeat after me: "You get what you pay for. Seven times more so when hosting." OK, now repeat that at least fifty more times to yourself. I know it won't do any good. But you can go out and prove it to yourself over a number of years otherwise. The good thing about plone is, it helps you find this out sooner rather than later, in case you can't remember: You get what you pay for. The more you ignore this, the more pain you will suffer. That said, even though this has been answered in our archives more than once, it may bear repeating: Free Plone sites: http://www.objectis.org/ http://myplone.objectis.org/ Has been there since Plone 1. Run by Pilot Systems and Blue Dynamics (who hosted two Plon Conferences). Can't use your own domain name yet because they don't want to support it. Can only use the products they have installed. So your site customizations will be TTW, not a site product. But they have a great number of installed products. In fact, if they don't have a product installed, you might question if you'd want to use it. If there is a product you want they don't have installed, they will install it if they can determine if it will be trouble-free. You have to justify why you need a free Plone host to Objectis. "I want to learn Plone" is not a justification. You can do that on your laptop. They want reasons like "I'd like to host a Plone site I have already developed which will help coordinate volunteers for my bike marathon for charity." They filter out bozo's and wannabe's so their resources can go to people who deserve it.

I installed Webmin, Plone, etc., and it runs like a garden hose and it's fast. It really works great, and I have 10 plone sites on one server. It's up all the time, and I have had ZERO problems with it. I get free backup space for the entire "drive" and it costs about $40/month. 3 - Getting a server of any kind is requirements driven. If you need huge bandwidth, high throughput and availability, rollover backups, redundancy, et al, then probably, virtual servers are not for you. If you want a very simple solution for working on sites, development team efforts, low to medium bandwidth, easy maintenance and backups, then maybe a virtual server will do ya fine. 4 - Being in the "hardware business" so to speak, is a real questionable thing, when you can let others handle that stuff (and pay them to do it, yes, you get what you pay for in that respect). You don't want to have to rebuild that box/os/etc. just to get your site back up and running after a hardware failure... unless that's your thing. rg Chris Calloway wrote: > Dave Powell wrote: >> hey guys... >> >> ...just had a friend pass along this info about Python hosting... >> >> http://www.fatcow.com >> >> ...thought i'd share...anybody know of any PZP hosting at this price >> point?...i need a host for some personal stuff...and the price is >> right...(i'd prefer plone/zope, but, beggars can't be choosers ;o) .... > > That's python as in straight up mod_python or python CGI on virtual > hosting.

Coming all the way from Hong Kong, I really appreciated the warm hospitality and excellent coordination to ensure the conference ran smoothly. You and your team went out of your way to make us feel welcome and worked particularly hard to make sure that we were well looked after. Phillip was an excellent tutor, the food and hospitality was exceptional and I was especially grateful for the minibus rides to and from the conference centre! It was also a great opportunity to meet some of the key Plone actors, and I know you worked hard to ensure a good selection of them were available to us. As an NGO seeking to connect corporate donors with other NGO's seeking to empower the poor, Global Hand has been steadily growing in its usage of Python/Zope/Plone. Its Plone website facilitates this corporate-NGO matching and so the camp5 tutition was essential to bring us up to date with the latest developments in the Plone sphere. So thank you, Chris, for putting together such a successful conference. I certainly feel like I got a lot out of it. Please do pass on my thanks to the rest of the trizpug team who, I know, sacrificed their personal time to ensure we were well looked after. Trizpug is an excellent ambassador for other python user groups. And yes, you can quote me on that if you like!
