Technology Virtualization
Short introduction to virtualization techniques
Technology Unique features of OpenVZ
The architecture of OpenVZ Virtual Private Servers is different from the traditional virtual machines architecture because it always runs the same OS kernel as the host system (while still allowing multiple Linux distributions in individual VPSs). This single-kernel implementation technology enables running Virtual Private Servers with a near-zero overhead. Thus, OpenVZ VPSs offer an order of magnitude higher efficiency and manageability than traditional virtualization technologies.
