I was looking at XenoLinux for virtual machines, since it's better to |
| 11 |
have single machines dedicated to each service. To achieve the |
| 12 |
infrastructure in a box objective, one machine can be split up into |
| 13 |
multiple virtual machines, or each virtual machine can be redistributed |
| 14 |
to physical machines as available. |

Xeno looks like it beats UML and vmware, and I haven't compared against |
| 17 |
plex86 yet. If Xeno holds up well, then yes, it would be interesting to |
| 18 |
use their VM software as part of gentoo-server. They're also doing some |
| 19 |
interesting stuff with distributed computing but that seems like |
| 20 |
another project altogether. :) |
