Best Linux Virtualization - OpenVZ / KVM / Xen PV / Xen HVM

MiniVZ

Hi,

I am using SolusVM and there are 4 virtualization methods available. They are the OpenVZ, KVM, Xen PV, Xen HVM.

Which is the best virtualization that makes a VPS works like a dedicated server with dedicated core, dedicated ram, dedicated HDD.

KVM. (at least for "dedicated server" part; the rest you can accomplish with any virtualization)

unless you actually need full virtualization you might as well us OpenVZ. It is the easiest and has the least overhead.

I've got to agree, OpenVZ is the easiest, and people tend to say great things about it

OpenVZ. But it sounds like you want KVM.

KVM or XEN HVM

According to my view it's KVM And XEN HVM Both
And it depends on your need.

If you don't have any preferences yet, and given your requirements, I would definitely go with KVM. KVM officially became part of the mainline Linux kernel as of version 2.6.20.

Xen and KVM. OpenVZ is not that dedicated.

Brad

Xen.

XenPV is like OpenVZ if OpenVZ wasn't terrible

ATHK

Anything but OpenVZ if you want Windows VMs

Netxons

KVM for sure, However you might interested with VMWare Exsi ;-)
