Friends I'm in doubt here: which virtualization platform to choose and why?
If I have just installed a VM I choose Xen or KVM? And when I have more than 5 or 10 VM's?
Please, I need your help to choose right.
It depends on many things.
If your hardware doesn't have CPU virtualization extensions, then you only have one choice - Xen.
Yes. All hardware has virt extensions...
If you want to use 32bit host OS, then you only have one choice - Xen.
Yes... All software is 32 bits
And if you run mainly Linux VMs then Xen is a good choice.
No... Mostly software is Windows based here...
