Xen Virtualization

Virtualization technologies allow to host an operating system inside another operating system (potentially different) without the need to have many physical machines. This configuration has the immediate advantage to aggregate services available on different machines, taking advantage of the host machine power and minimizing maintenance costs (electric power, occupied space, air conditioning, security, etc). Moreover a virtual machine can be migrated very easily from a server to another, limiting the time needed to maintain the hardware and allowing more complex ways to handle backup.

Building a virtualization system has become very important for every company. But a modern company is managed using different server platforms. Grouping them under a single virtualization technology is too important to be entrusted to just one company. It's for this that the entire field, including chip producers, server suppliers and operating system developer companies are investing on Xen open source project.

Xen natively supports the new hardware-assisted virtualization technology, either on Intel processors or AMD's. This feature allows to virtualize many operating systems, from Linux to Windows, from Solaris to FreeBSD. Moreover Xen assure full compatibility with the new virtualization technology included on Microsoft Windows 2008.
