I have both and Virtuozzo has less overhead then Xen. ÂIt is the reverse. I use XEN because I need to virtualize Windows along with Linux. But rest assured, OpenVZ and Virtuozzo are one or several steps ahead. The management tools are far more sophisticated in Virtuozzo and the support is amazing, it cannot be compared.

Hi Rob,

 

Basically thereâs 2 reasons why Iâm looking at Xen:

 

1. Cost of licencing for Virtuozzo which is based on how many CPUs etc.

2. Xen has better IO performance compared to Virtuozzo. Itâs been shown on a few forums that Xen can have 3 times the disk IO performance.

 

Does anyone have any answers to my original questions?

 

Regards,

Alan

I'm curious about your shift from Virtuozzo: is that because you needed

something other than Virtuozzo does? or because Virtuozzo proved to be

ineffective in some way?

 

I'm asking because I'm being urged to work with Virtuozzo, and wanted to

know if there were some pitfalls in using it that were evident in

people's experiences with it.

 

Appreciate any thoughts you can share.
