Hypervisor?

[Psittac]

I want to split my second server between linux and windows server, what's a good hypervisor that doesn't need an overly expensive license or even free?  I saw the LTT video recently about the linux kvm or something but wasn't clear on what that was. I had esxi on my first server until the license ran out and had to go bare metal.

 

Thanks

KVM is a hypervisor developed by Red Hat that runs on Linux hosts. Fedora supports it quite well for instance, or if you want a more server oriented system you can wait 4 days for the release of CentOS 8.

Proxmox, it's free and open source and based on Debian, uses KVM
