There are many virtualization solutions in the world and companies can select one of them or some of them to deploy virtual environment.
The most used ones are Proxmox and Vmware Vsphere.

KVM is a popular hypervisor for server virtualization. It realizes CPU and storage virtualization by calling the core features of Linux to make Linux core become the virtualization layer. Sometimes KVM will work with QEMU emulator.
