It's cheaper, and requires less resources in other ways (data centre
space, power, etc.) It also makes the administration easier, rather than
harder. If you want to upgrade koha, you have only one place to do it.

We have been making a system that makes this pretty easy, we can
provision a new instance by running a command, and creating a database
on the DB server. Most, if not all, of the code for this is currently in
the Git master branch.
