OpenVZ has always delivered on the promise of true production-ready container technology. The OpenVZ team has wisely focused its efforts on delivering a true solution that can be relied upon for internal clouds, high performance computing, hosting, and empowering developers to do cool things. I use OpenVZ because it works, and works well, and the OpenVZ team continues to improve the technology in smart ways.
