Virtualization
It's how enterprises see performance take off
Virtualization can vastly improve efficiency, free up resources, and cut costs—without sacrificing performance, security, and existing investments.
A complete virtualization solution for servers and technical workstations
Your bottom line depends on having a highly available and resilient infrastructure. Look beyond today and scale to meet future challenges caused by evolving technology and business demands.
Red Hat® Virtualization (formerly Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization)—powered by the people behind Red Hat Enterprise Linux®—takes you beyond bare metal to an open, agile foundation that's ready to take on the future.

RED HAT Virtualization with Guests
Linux + virtualization from Red Hat gives you performance and a platform without boundaries
Red Hat Virtualization with guests combines Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat Virtualization in 1 package for less.
Take complexity and application processing latency out of your implementation. Go beyond bare metal and virtualize more resource-intensive workloads on fewer servers. Requiring no modification with better synchronization, Red Hat Virtualization is a natural choice for virtualized Linux workloads.
