XCP-ng – a high performance enterprise level virtualization platform with a rich ecosystem, that can be integrated in an entire stack to do management and backup for it.
XCP-ng stands for Xen Cloud Platform next generation is the modern successor to XCP, initially created as an Open Source version of Citrix XenServer back in 2010.
XCP-ng is, by default, a secure platform to run any kind of virtualization workload, while being managed by a central administration console, integrated with an API and CLI but also compatible with Packer, Terraform and Ansible.
The main goal of XCP-ng is to be a fully integrated and dedicated virtualization platform, without requiring any deep Linux or system knowledge. It’s meant to be managed in a centralized manner via Xen Orchestra, regardless the fact you have only one host or thousand of them. Backup is also included inside Xen Orchestra.
Goals:
– Modern Web UI – Use the powerful, web based, Xen Orchestra to manage your hosts
– Live migration – Live migrate your VMs all around the world, without interruption
– Scale – Grow your own Cloud with more hosts when needed
– Secure – Control your VMs on your own baremetal, no neighbors
XCP-ng features such components: Citrix Hypervisor, CentOS as a base, Xen + patches, Linux Kernel + patches.
