Xen峰會由Xen.org社區(qū)發(fā)起創(chuàng)立,每年在美國和亞洲分別舉辦一次。
作為一個基于開源軟件的虛擬化解決方案,Xen最早由英國劍橋大學計算機實驗室的Ian Pratt、Keir Fraser等人領導的開發(fā)小組發(fā)起,隨后Ian Pratt創(chuàng)立了Xen.org 開源社區(qū),由來自多個業(yè)界領先的軟件、硬件和安全廠商的數(shù)百名資深工程師共同開發(fā)。經(jīng)過數(shù)年發(fā)展,Xen現(xiàn)在可支持32位x86架構(包括32位PAE)、64位x86架構、安騰IA-64(Itanium)和Power PC等架構。
The Xen hypervisor, the powerful open source industry standard for virtualization, offers a powerful, efficient, and secure feature set for virtualization of x86, x86_64, IA64, ARM, and other CPU architectures. It supports a wide range of guest operating systems including Windows, Linux, Solaris, and various versions of the BSD operating systems.
Xen Community Deliverables:
The open source Xen community currently delivers several solutions for use by customers, software and hardware vendors, researchers, developers, hobbyists, etc.
1. Xen Hypervisor - Leading open source hypervisor for servers
2. XCI - Xen hypervisor for client devices
3. Xen Cloud Platform - Enteprise cloud solution stack for virtualization
4. Xen.org Projects
.HXEN - Xen running as a Type 2 hypervisor
.Xen ARM - Port of Xen hypervisor to ARM processor
.Project Satori - Support for paravirtualized Xen Linux guests running on Hyper-VThe Xen.org community also supports a variety of solutions built for and around the Xen Hypervisor. Click here for a list of those projects.
