Introduction to the Xen Virtual Machine | Linux Journal

Introduction to the Xen Virtual Machine | Linux Journal: "In August 2005, XenSource, a commercial company that develops virtualization solutions based on Xen, announced in Intel Developer Forum (IDF) that it has used Intel VT-Enabled Platforms with Xen to virtualize both Linux and Microsoft Windows XP SP2.
Xen with Intel VT or Xen with AMD Pacifica would be competitive with if not superior to other virtualization methods, as well as to native operation.
In the same arena, VMware is a commercial company that develops the ESX server, a virtualization solution not based on Xen. VMware announced in early August 2005 that it will be providing its partners with access to VMware ESX Server source code and interfaces under a new program called VMware Community Source."
