The three techniques differ in complexity of implementation, breadth of OS support, performance in comparison with standalone server, and level of access to common resources. For example, VMs have wider scope of usage, but poor poorer performance. Para-VMs have better performance, but can support fewer OSs because OSes due to the need of need to modify modifying the original OSsOS.
Virtualization on the OS level provides the best performance and scalability compared to other approaches. Performance difference of such systems can be as low as 1…3%, comparing with that of a standalone server. [[Virtual Environment]]s are usually also much simpler to administer as all of them can be accessed and administered from the host system. Generally, such systems are the best choice for server consolidation of same OS workloads.
