Virtualization

Schizophrenia for machines, in a nutshell. Very trendy since 2006.

Platform	Date	Link	Notes
Linux	2010-11	OpenNebula	Clustered `KVM` and suchlike. Neat.
	2006-01	Xen
	2006-01	OpenVZ	Solaris-like domains/partitions approach for Linux
Mac	2024-01	Viable, Vimy and Liviable	a set of tools to create and run macOS VMs on Apple Silicon
	2024-01	Tart	a CI virtualization toolset to build, run and manage macOS and Linux virtual machines (VMs) on Apple Silicon.
	2006-01	Parallels Workstation	Another option for the Mac
Multiple		VMware	My favorite, spanning all my platforms.
Multiple		QEMU	The grandaddy of most modern virtualization

See also Docker for some virtualization tools that make it easier to run Linux containers on Windows and macOS.
