Customers considering virtualization software can consider Oracle VM Server as their single-stop solution. The data centre managers should look at this as their first option. And certainly Oracle, with its long legacy in enterprise IT, knows how to build a powerful virtualization platform. Besides its free for Oracle customers makes it pretty unique in its own field.

Well suited: development work as they provide a very nice free tier, datacenters in Latin America with very low ping, heavy loads for DB if you use Oracle DB Less appropriate: fast webservers as they use hard disks for several tiers, fast MySQL databases as the server is shared, auto-scaling functionality is not present.

We use a virtualization platform, to decentralize and have security with ours. Our main servers are virtualized on the platform, good cost-benefit, reducing physical costs in the company, we have security and high availability in the cloud.

Oracle VM Server Review

Oracle VM Server is well-suited for long term deployment where you have to invest a lot. But, it is best recommended in the development phase and UAT, as there is a lot of services that are missing.

It's simple, clean and easy to deploy. The updates are only making the product much better. Kudos to Oracle Dev team! It has great flexibility but could use some work in the snapshot capabilities (but hey, remember - it's free). The management console is intuitive and does a good job at managing resources, keeping an eye on your templates and so on.
