VMs / Instances / Vhosts
2 VMs are recommended. It is possible to use a single VM, but you will not benefit from having your production VM updated at a separate time than your test/development VM. The instances can use the "Shared Apache" unless there is need for custom virtualhost includes.
It is possible to fit multiple applications onto a single VM (i.e. appname2, appname3, etc...). Please note that if you opt to use memcached this will be shared among all the applications that are on the same host.
