SmartOS is a free and open-source SVR4 hypervisor based on the UNIX operating system that combines OpenSolaris technology with bhyve and KVM virtualization. [2] Its core kernel contributes to the illumos project. [3] It features several technologies: Crossbow, DTrace, bhyve, KVM, ZFS, and Zones.
Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a free and open-source virtualization module in the Linux kernel that allows the kernel to function as a hypervisor. It was merged into the mainline Linux kernel in version 2.6.20, which was released on February 5, 2007. [ 1 ]

Two types of virtualization are supported: container-based with LXC (starting from version 4.0 replacing OpenVZ used in version up to 3.4, included [10]), and full virtualization with KVM. [11] It includes a web-based management interface. [12] [13] There is also a mobile application available for controlling PVE environments. [14]
Hyper-V is a native hypervisor developed by Microsoft; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems running Windows. [1] It is included in Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows NT (since Windows 8) as an optional feature to be manually enabled. [2]
Kernel-based Virtual Machine/QEMU (KVM) – open-source hypervisor for Linux and SmartOS [11] Xen – bare-metal hypervisor; User-mode Linux (UML) – paravirtualized kernel; VirtualBox – hypervisor by Oracle (formerly by Sun) for Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris; VMware ESXi and GSX – hypervisors for Intel hardware
oVirt is a free, open-source virtualization management platform. It was founded by Red Hat as a community project on which Red Hat Virtualization is based. It allows centralized management of virtual machines, compute, storage and networking resources, from an easy-to-use web-based front-end with platform independent access.
Google Compute Engine uses KVM as the hypervisor, [4] and supports guest images running Linux and Microsoft Windows which are used to launch virtual machines based on the 64 bit x86 architecture. VMs boot from a persistent disk that has a root filesystem.
