Virtuozzo vs XEN virtualization

Virtuozzo fits into "Operating system-level virtualization" and XEN into "Native Virtualization". Virtuozzo is just a software layer and is almost a glorified "jail" within the system, thereby using a shared kernel and host operating system. XEN, similar to Parallels, VMware and Microsoft Virtual Server, simulate hardware in a guest operating system. This allows for the guest to run exactly like a standalone server would, as far as the end-user is concerned. This type of virtualization tends to be more stable due to its architecture.

Vmware and Xen Virtualization

Guru-host is able to offer you virtual private servers either on Xen, Microsoft Hyper-V or VMware technology. Those that are based on XEN (now with Intel Xeon Nehalem processors) are hosted on Hewlett Packard and IBM servers with dual quad core processors, DDR2 EEC FB RAM, hardware RAID6 or 10 and enterprise class SAS drives within the UK (London Redbus). Don't forget to read our frequently asked questions regarding XEN VPS.

The VMware approach to virtualization inserts a thin layer of software directly on the computer hardware or on a host operating system. This software layer creates virtual machines and contains a virtual machine monitor or “hypervisor” that allocates hardware resources dynamically and transparently so that multiple operating systems can run concurrently on a single physical computer without even knowing it.  VMware virtual machines are hosted within the UK too (BlueSquare).
