LXC or KVM: What type of virtualization is performed?

By default, Linux container virtualization, LXC, is used as it is more flexible. If you require KVM virtualization, just contact us.

The most important difference between KVM and LXC virtualization is that virtual machines require a separate kernel instance to run, while containers can be deployed from the host operating system. This significantly reduces the complexity of container creation and maintenance. Additionally, the reduced overhead allows you to create a large number of containers with faster startup and shutdown speeds.
