# KVM-related virtual machine monitors
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) module for Linux can be leveraged by many virtual machine monitors (VMMs) to achieve near native performance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### QEMU
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[QEMU](https://wiki.qemu.org/) is a very popular emulator which can be used alongside to KVM to leverage hardware-assisted acceleration as found in modern CPUs. In this mode, as used as a virtualizer in QEMU lingo, it can run guest code directly on the host CPU.
