Hypervisor

[osxman]

Hi,

Just come across Oracle VM Virtual Box 3.2.8. Is this product similar to ESXi Hypervisor or more like Vmware Workstaion? I have recently set-up ESXI, vSphere, Vcentre and View, and had some good results, expecially running thin clients. The only downside is it's too darn expensive, which has led me to look at other products.
My goal is to run 3 ms servers, 1 DC, 1 exchange, and 1 sql. Not bothered wether the host is Linux or windows based.

Any advice is much appreciated.

It isn't really like any of them, but is probably more like VMWare Workstation than ESX.

You can certainly run three Windows servers in VirtualBox. You won't see things like vsphere or vcenter.

Thanks for your response.
