Libvirt API for virtualization
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
|
|
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
|
|
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
|
|
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
|
|
Hypervisor.
|
|
|
|
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management
|
|
daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the
|
|
API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
|
|
|
|
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other
|
|
languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as
|
|
mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
|
