HXEN - Hosted Xen

Hosted Xen (HXEN) runs the Xen core hypervisor as a Type-2 VMM on top of a regular operating system instead of the usual Type-1 methodology that the Xen hypervisor is designed for. HXEN is capable of running on top of any operating system but is currently being developed for Windows and Mac OSX. If you are interested in starting a new project to port HXEN to another operating system, please contact Stephen Spector.

Xen ARM Project

The Xen ARM Project, lead by Samsung, is responsible for the direct port of the Xen hypervisor to the ARM processor. The project is led by Sang-bum Suh from Samsung and can be monitored on the Xen ARM Wiki or the project mailing list.

Project Satori

Project Satori is the result of a collaborative agreement between XenSource and Microsoft, and was carried forward after XenSource was acquired by Citrix Systems. The base Satori components are released by Microsoft as the Linux Integration Components for Hyper-V, and provide support for paravirtualized XenLinux guests running on Hyper-V. The Linux Integration Components can be downloaded here.
