KVM is the closest virtualisation technique to a true dedicated server. That is why many, including me, prefer it.

i prefer KVM for my client. but i always looking OpenVZ for playing around. :D

I have to admit that my first experiences with KVM weren't happy ones. Granted that was a problem with me not expecting me to have to install the OS myself as well as not reading the emails @miTgiB sent out.
-
KVM is my choice now, for the freedom to do almost anything inside a VPS like a real dedicated server and the lower density compared with OpenVZ.

KVM is my number one choice, I love it. My first experience was, this is long but I got used to it. There isn't much setting up and stuff to do.

I used to prefer Xen, but now I prefer OpenVZ due to the ease of management, setup and control. From a client perspective, I don't really have a preference and use all kinds for my personal use.

Actually @drmike you can actually have a template system, we have currently implemented a basic version of it but we are looking to replace it within the next month with our new system which is much easier for clients to re-install compared to our current ISOs.
Send me a quick PM on here and I will get you a link to test our KVM services out for a couple of hours.
You wont be going on a production node but one of our testing ones will be okay for some quick testing by you.
I am aware SolusVM have implemented a Network Install function using PXE but that is still not working how I would like it too.

PXE can use all sorts of things, it's not Solus borking it, but the menuing and kickstart being a limitation of it. Delta was working on something of a template system that would mount the VM's disk in the host node and dump a template in along with boot blocks but I don't recall how much progress he's made with it.

I think the OP was asking for comparisons of KVM vs Xen HVM :)

A topic already discussed several times, I guess :P

Exactly what I was meaning, as we have shown there is a few much better alternatives to it.
I will be reducing information on it within the next month too a week on how its been done.

KVM vs Xen HVM - they are basically identical. Both use Qemu to provide the actual visualization, and thus both will behave basically the same way.

You'd think that, but there are subtle differences between them and KVM gets my vote for the superior tech. I have a client that wanted to encrypt their filesystem and use gentoo, Xen HVM couldn't boot it, KVM asked for what was next.

I have just tried KVM, i am so impressed than Xen-HVM. But how marketing?
