IBM PowerKVM is an open virtualization solution offered for the Power scale-out family of Linux only servers built on POWER8 technology. PowerKVM delivers server virtualization based on open source Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) Linux technology. PowerKVM virtualization technology enables you to share real compute, memory, and I/O resources through server virtualization. These virtual resources are used by virtual machines running on the PowerKVM virtualized server.

 

PowerKVM-based server virtualization enables optimization and the overcommitment of resources like CPU and memory. This can help you achieve superior resource usage, flexibility, and agility, helping to result in cost reduction through economies of scale. With PowerKVM you can move VMs and workloads using live migration without taking application downtime. This can help increase overall availability and flexibility.

 

The PowerKVM solution uses existing Linux administration skills for virtualization administration and open administration tools like OpenStack to potentially reduce the overall cost of operation and ownership. The PowerKVM product also includes a local graphical virtualization administration tool called Kimchi, which simplifies initial setup and basic virtualization operation.
