We have been very pleased about the positive experiences that our customers have had with Xen.

Q -  Are there any other open source technology you leverage to manage,  monitor, etc Xen?
Our Xen hosting servers are compatible with a huge range of open source applications. There are way too many to name, but some of the most used software applications that our customers use include Drupal, Elgg, Magento, Dolphin, Joomla and many more.
Q – How has open source Xen enabled your success?
A2 Hosting is always looking to support the very best in web development technology. Xen has allowed us to expand our product offering and to meet specific technical requirements for many of our customers. Not only do we offer multiple VPS plans, but our customers choose their virtualization platform, including Xen.
Q – Has anyone at A2 contributed back to the community?
A2 Hosting has been happy to pledge hosting accounts to Xen administrators to further the voice of their community.
Q -  Is there anything that you would like to tell the community? New  features? Issues?
One of the things that we have been working on recently is creating strategic partnerships with companies that can aid in the success of our customers’ websites. Every A2 Hosting plan now includes $145 in free PPC ad credits, free analytic accounts, free customer/visitor accounts and much more.
