redhat's new Openshift

[TheDoc]

Does anyone here have experience with Redhat's new free openshift service and would it be possible to run a shard on it?

Thanks!

Hey man! Long time no see Openshift by redhat is here. I thought I read you can use appications and figured it would be a good starting point. https://www.openshift.com

You are limited to 512mb ram per gear I believe on openshifts free tier which is not enough in my opinion to run a stable system plus you are limited to 1gb file space. Plus I have personally not tested ServUO on non debian based Linux distros so cannot personally attest to stability or compatibility.

You would be better off using amazon AWS free tier which allows you to create an EC2 instance with 1gb of ram and 30gb of SSD space. If you go this way I recommend creating a Ubuntu instance.

Ahh, yeah. Forgot about that. Yeah I always prefer Debian 6 or sometimes Ubuntu. Ty chief.

It would be good for the community if someone were to make a guide to setting up an instance on AWS and then installing the prerequisites for ServUO (mono) and ServUO itself.

Great idea.

Please note that AWS is free for one year of use. After that it is about $15 / month for the equivalent level of service. And what you get is 1GB RAM and 1 vCPU.
