What is StarWind Virtual HCI Appliance?

Discover the benefits of the StarWind hyperconverged appliance without the requirement to buy our specialized hardware; instead, you can obtain the software along with the entire range of components that power our virtualization platform, which is conveniently pre-packaged for installation on your current hardware setup. You will have the option to select from numerous supported hypervisors like VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, or our tailored variant of KVM, complemented by our proprietary storage virtualization solution, StarWind Virtual SAN, which effectively transmits data using the dependable iSCSI protocol or the cutting-edge NVMe-oF with RDMA technology, whenever feasible, all overseen by a user-friendly web interface that incorporates AI-driven telemetry and a "call home" functionality for improved support.

What is Apple Hypervisor?

Create virtualization solutions using a lightweight hypervisor that functions without relying on external kernel extensions. This hypervisor provides C APIs, allowing direct interaction with virtualization technologies in user space, thus removing the necessity for kernel extensions (KEXTs). As a result, applications developed with this framework can be easily distributed through the Mac App Store. Utilize this framework to create and oversee hardware-assisted virtual machines and virtual processors (VMs and vCPUs) within your authorized and sandboxed user-space application. The Hypervisor treats virtual machines as processes and virtual processors as threads, which streamlines the development experience. It is crucial to understand that the Hypervisor framework requires specific hardware capabilities to effectively virtualize resources. For devices running on Apple silicon, this involves the essential Virtualization Extensions, while Intel-based Macs must have systems that feature Intel VT-x technologies, including Extended Page Tables (EPT) and Unrestricted Mode. This framework, therefore, lays down a solid groundwork for crafting sophisticated virtualization solutions that are well-suited for contemporary computing environments, ensuring both performance and reliability. Furthermore, the emphasis on user-space applications enhances security by isolating the virtualization processes from the core operating system.
