== Main <translate><!--T:1-->'''OpenVZ''' 7.0 is a virtualization and automation solution built on top of OpenVZ components. OpenVZ 7 provides improvements and additional functionality in the areas of density, management tools, recovery, etc. Specific benefits ==of OpenVZ compared to other virtualization solutions can be found in [[Comparison|this article]].
* Parallels Cloud Storage.<!--T:2-->: A resilient Virtuozzo is built on top of OpenVZ technologies but provides more features, services, and robust way to unify all your local nodes storage into a single highly available SAN-grade distributed storage systemsupport.
* Higher container density.== Components == <!--T: PVC provides efficient memory and file sharing mechanisms (VZFS or pfcache) enabling higher container density and better performance of containers.3-->
* Management tools.: PVC ships with number of management, monitoring, troubleshooting, and administration tools significantly reducing management, administration, and deployment costs. Specific tools include:<ul>!--T: <li> [http://www.parallels.com/en/products/virtuozzo/tools/vzmc/ Parallels Management Console] — GUI4--based administration, management, monitoring, and provisioning tool.</li>OpenVZ consists from open components and includes: <li> [http://www.parallels.com/en/products/infrastructure/ Parallels Infrastructure Manager] — browser-based administration, management, monitoring, and provisioning tool.</li>
