VirtualOS - Our datacenter virtualization solution allow enterprise customers to eliminate the VMWare tax by using open source KVM and Linux technologies that are used by largest public cloud companies like Google and Amazon. Learn more about VirtualOS.
What is KVM?
Linux KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is an open-source, high-performance virtualization technology built directly into the Linux kernel that turns it into a Type-1 (bare-metal) hypervisor. It enables running multiple, isolated virtual machines (VMs) with different operating systems (Linux, Windows) on the same physical server.
Native Performance: Leverages hardware-assisted virtualization (Intel VT-x and AMD-V) to achieve near-bare-metal performance.
Live Migration: Moves running virtual machines between physical hosts without service interruption, critical for high-availability environments.
Resource Management: Inherits Linux's advanced memory management, including Kernel Samepage Merging (KSM), NUMA awareness, and dynamic memory ballooning.
Broad Architecture Support: Operates across multiple hardware platforms, including x86_64, ARM64, and IBM Z systems.
