Cloud Computing with KVM
summary
KVM provides a hardened hypervisor with EAL4+ certification and SELinux-based mandatory isolation, integrates with oVirt and OpenStack (Glance/Neutron) and ships lightweight admin UIs like Kimchi. Real-world benchmarks show an Exchange VM test scaling to 20,000 simulated users with 95% under 500 ms response and low CPU headroom, and a DB2 TPC‑C result that is the highest reported for a virtualization platform. Three‑year TCO comparisons show 20–50% cost savings versus VMware for mixed workloads.
