I'm working with a client right now on deploying an app. I was wondering if anyone had some recommendations for a Haskell-friendly host. I'm inclined to go with a VPS for this setup, but if there's reliable shared hosting, that would do as well. This client is fairly price-sensitive, so I don't think anything past the $20/month range to start off with. The only other requirement for this project is PostgreSQL. As far as wants:
I use Linode, and it seems to meet your needs as stated. Linux of your choice, $20/month, and you can run any software you run. The only tricky issue is that you need to pin your OS's kernel to whatever Linode uses -- you can't just upgrade when your OS distributor updates. I haven't used it for any business projects yet, so I can't really respond to its performance/scalability/enterprise-worthiness. I intend to deploy a small project there soon, but might use Amazon EC2 instead (depending on how much RAM it turns out Happstack really needs...)
