Well, it seems that Best Practise would be better name for what I am looking for :-)

I am looking for information like below:
- when you use KVM using more KVM VMs then X is not advisable since ...

As many as appliaction need.

In general when you have many OS-es (CentOS) you face following problems:
- how to keep up with package updates ?
- how about security - is it easier to manage many CentOS-es or just one with many KVMs ?
- how to keep up with application maintenance (mysql, postgresql, apache, dns, etc) ?
Which approach would be better/easier ?
