Hallo


Tell me please what virtualization chould I choose for hosting server? Thank you

KVM is true virtualization where the VPS operates as its own server, independently of the host node. OpenVZ is a container which relies on the host node's kernel. KVM has no restrictions in terms of functionality. OpenVZ is constrained by the host node kernel. KVM is generally more stable than OpenVZ.

You've forgotten VMware ESXi, I run my SoftEtherVPN server on CentOS7 in that environment without problems (don't forget that ESXi has a free version).

You never bothered to mention that earlier.

The answer I gave you was about 'virtualization'. ;)

You can use whatever suits you, I was merely offering another option.
