Hey Folks - We need your help. We were hoping, we could gain from your experience with implementing server virtualization. When should we be using Red Hat Virtualization, Citrix Virtualization, Xen Virtualization, Microsoft Virtualization, Oracle Virtualization and VMWare. I will be very interested in learning from your first hand experience. I will also like to know, under what situations is one virtualization preferred over the other. - Thanks for your help

same as anything else it's down to cost, availability and what you want. open source seems to be more difficult to install but is more versatile,ie, might work (open s.) with more systems and give you a free server but the companies that now own these experiments want to sell their version, and sever, so they wont go too far to make the free one easy.
