The OpenVZ project will demonstrate for the first time what is possible using its virtualization software in combination with other virtual machine technology. The demo shows dividing one physical server into virtual servers using Parallels, Xen or VMware software, and then creating OpenVZ virtual environments inside those virtual machines -- effectively creating many virtual servers to improve utilization of the physical server.
