Still in development and testing but it has a lot of momentum behind it.
I saw packages for libvirt but not xcp-xapi. Do you know if there are any plans to support xapi?
The lines between Xen and KVM may become less clear in the future as the Linux Foundation has taken up Xen [1].
As for Xen vs KVM now, I like the higher level tools built to use KVM, such as oVirt/RHEV as well as the integration of KVM management via Libvirt with tools like Foreman. I've run some IO intense programs using KVM without issue and am able to use all stock EL packages to do so.
It's true that libvirt also supports KVM. My question is about plans for the xcp-xapi toolstack, see http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Choice_of_Toolstacks
In some higher-level tools libvirt is used for kvm only, for xen they only support xcp-xapi.
