More on OpenVZ
Description from Wikipedia:
OpenVZ is an operating system-level virtualization technology based on the Linux kernel and operating system. OpenVZ allows a physical server to run multiple isolated operating system instances, known as containers, Virtual Private Servers (VPSs), or Virtual Environments (VEs). It's similar to FreeBSD Jails and Solaris Zones.
As compared to virtual machines such as VMware and paravirtualization technologies like Xen, OpenVZ is limited in that it requires both the host and guest OS to be Linux (although Linux distributions can be different in different containers). However, OpenVZ claims a performance advantage; according to its website, there is only a 1–3% performance penalty for OpenVZ as compared to using a standalone server. One independent performance evaluation confirms this. Another shows more significant performance penalties depending on the metric used.
OpenVZ is a basis of Parallels Virtuozzo Containers, a proprietary software product provided by Parallels, Inc. OpenVZ is licensed under the GPL version 2. OpenVZ project is supported and sponsored by Parallels.
The OpenVZ is divided into a custom kernel and user-level tools.
