Xen Project has been at the forefront of the birth of Cloud Operating Systems: specialized lightweight operating systems which are only intended to be used within a Virtual Machine. These Cloud Operating Systems may become the core of a new form of cloud, where a single hypervisor instance can support hundreds or even thousands of VMs.
Cloud Operating System List
The following Cloud Operating Systems are currently of interest to the Xen Project:
- MirageOS employs an OCaml-based kernel
- Erlang on Xen creates an Erlang runtime environment
- HalVM uses Haskell
- OSv produces a Java environment
- GuestVM is a Java-based effort
