Red Hat Virtualization (RHV)

Formerly RHEV

Red Hat Virtualization is the best enterprise-level virtualization software for an organization that needs cost-effective and flexible solutions for its environment. We can easily integrate RHEV with other Red Hat software like OpenStack...etc. RHEV is highly customizable software, which helps us to customize our environment. Since RHEV is an open-source tool, we can install it on any hardware. There is no proprietary dependency.

RHV has the following advantages:

• They have relatively cheaper subscriptions compared to others.
• With the future going to Openstack and containerization migrating to KVM-based virtualization will be easier to migrate to future products.
• The easiness to use Ansible to automate activities on Red Hat Virtualization make it easier to consolidate all your automation tasks using one automation solution.

Compared to oVirt, RHEV is more stable but has fewer capabilities. ESX is far more difficult to automate.

RHEV is an excellent product, includes more features, is less expensive, and has rock solid reliability and is backed with the best Red Hat Support in the industry. RHEV uses KVM under the hood which is used by all the big players in the industry (AWS, Rackspace, etc) to lower their overall costs and improve efficiency and profits and that's why RHEV is an excellent solution!
