Hosting for multiple practices

A practice we work very closely with is going to make the transition into OpenEMR. I have offered to host their site as a courtesy and could use some advice.

Our practice has accumulated numerous customizations to the codebase over the past 2 years. I would prefer for them to start off with the default installation and make changes as they see fit. That rules out the multi-site module, correct? If that’s the case, I figured I could add a separate VM on our server exclusively for their site. Are there minimum/recommended system requirements for a virtual web server hosting OpenEMR only? Is there a more efficient way I can go about hosting for multiple providers? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Another option is to simply create a new virtual directory on your web server with a clean copy of the default installation. Then when it comes time during the setup/create the database simply choose a different name for both the schema and the database user.
