# 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.

|
||||
### crosvm
|
||||
|
||||
crosvm is the Chrome OS Virtual Machine Monitor. It is integrated with the Chromium Operating System
|
||||
|
||||
### cloud-hypervisor
