Managed Servers: Any suggestions?
I am considering hosting that includes management (system administration and monitoring). The only options I have found that include this all in one is at Rackspace (CloudSites or CloudServers+Management).
Does anyone here use a third-party company for management (OS/tuning) with Linodes? Do you have recommendations outside of Linode that offer this?
I currently have four Linodes in one data center for high availability Apache/PHP and MySQL servers, and am considering adding a bit more or switching to another offering.
Thanks, Josh

I have a Linode but I also have a server at WiredTree for some basic webhosting for several domains because they include cPanel and full management for a great price.
Thanks for the tip. That is definitely a much better price than Rackspace. How much do you use their support? Is it good?
Thanks, Josh
For example, they resolved an issue for me where Litespeed was not properly executing PHP files. Their support people are always very friendly and quick to respond to issues. Anything to do with server load issues, script problems, etc, they generally deal with very quickly.
