Hi, I'm writing this clarify the distinction between OpenVZ and Virtuozzo, and the relation between the two.
Fortunately, there is no need to tell you what OpenVZ is, so I'll happily skip that part, except for one important thing. OpenVZ is a technology, not a product, and was never intended to be a product. The product, actually, a set of products, a platform, is Virtuozzo. We build OpenVZ for the community and enthusiasts.We build Virtuozzo on top of OpenVZ for companies whose business dependson it. Virtuozzo is based on Linux, OpenVZ, and many other great technologies (which we are contributing back to) and it provides everything that OpenVZ does, plus extras such as: * 24x7 Support The Virtuozzo Support team is fantastic, and all they do is help customers with Virtuozzo. I can't say enough good things about them -- they always impress me with their professionalism (and I'm not one who is easily impressed). * Virtuozzo Storage This is a software-defined storage solution, a distributed file system that combines the local storage space on all servers into a big pool and makes it available from every server (side benefit: no need to copy the data during live migration). Virtuozzo Storage automatically handles redundancy, optimizes performance, improves efficiency and does other magical things. * ReadyKernel This is a kpatch-based mechanism that lets you update the kernel without a reboot. In light of recent security holes, the possibility to patch a vulnerability instantly, without waiting for scheduled downtime, is truly priceless. * More Tools, More Features This includes, but is not limited to, backup, management web interface, and monitoring tools. There's more to it, but let's keep it simple. To learn more, please see https://virtuozzo.com/openvz Regards, Kir.
