OpenVZ vs. Virtuozzo
Revision as of 18:29, 4 June 2008 by DevUrandom (talk | contribs) (Very basic Virtuozzo vs OpenVZ comparison, as recieved on IRC (the net seems to be missing something like this).)
Many may wonder what exactly the difference between OpenVZ and Virtuozzo is.
Virtuozzo is based off OpenVZ, which means it adds a few features. Which are that?
- Management interface (GUI)
- RAM management
- VZFS (allows for disk and memory savings very similiar to Linux-VServer's copy-on-write system called "unification")
- Commercial support
OpenVZ is mostly run by Parallels (owner of Virtuozzo) employees, who maintain OpenVZ as the core functionality of Virtuozzo.
