10 FOREWORD Virtualization is cool. I've always had a soft spot for virtualization, since as a lifelong sysadmin I get pretty tired of the endless fine-tuning that goes into building a successful network "host." Especially when that fine-tuning evolves into upgrades involving screwdrivers, recabling, and dust. While Xen wasn't the first serious virtualization platform, it was the first serious open source virtualization platform, so it was the first that I was willing to invest my time in learning about, and the first I'd consider basing any production-level systems on. Open source isn't just a preference for me I dislike lock-in, so I hardly ever buy or deploy or depend on something that I couldn't replace with a different product offered by a competing vendor sometime in the future. Like any serious open source system, Xen has the power of an ecosystem in which anybody who wants to vend can pick a spot and start hacking, but Xen also has the backing of a strong company whose employees contribute to the open source version of their product. This kind of vertical openness makes it possible for anyone (a hobbyist or a Fortune 500 company) to jump into Xen, buy only what they want or need (or just get it all for free), and have it remain compatible with the rest of the ecosystem. Thank you, XenSource and Citrix, for all this. Confession time: I don't use Xen for any of my personal projects. I just don't have enough systems in any one location, nor can I plan far enough in advance I'm too small to be able to afford virtualization's efficiencies. Whenever I do need separation of privilege on the same physical servers, I've been able to get away with FreeBSD jails or User Mode Linux. I also do a fair amount of real-time work, in which I need my code to be close to the hardware for design and sometimes performance reasons. For professional work, my company uses a mixture of proprietary (VMware) and open source (Xen) virtualization and the results are outstanding. Whether it's to save money on hardware, save money on sysadmin time, or enable new kinds of computing, virtualization is a winner and it's here to stay. I've seen Amazon and Google build gigantic clouds of virtualized servers for their own use and for rental to customers, and this method has driven down IT costs for both new and established companies of all sizes. It probably saves power and lowers the industry's carbon footprint as well. I'm struggling to find a way to communicate how amazingly cool this is. We try to write programs that fit into a single process, but they end up taking a whole Unix system because of all the processes and databases and shell scripts and file systems and UIDs they slop over. So we end up dedicating physical servers to applications that have no performance- or security-related reason to be on dedicated servers; but each one takes up some rack space and some sysadmin time, and each one generates some minimum amount of heat, and so on. Then along comes virtualization, and we're back to adding physical servers only when we've got a good reason to do so, which usually means for capacity reasons. 10
