Isn't Bhyve a full-on hypervisor ?
- decide1000 4y agoI compare Bhyve often with Docker or Podman. It is a hypervisor and virtual machine manager. Basically you link a ISO and run it. It can be any OS. There are several ways to run Bhyve: - CLI - Libvert and virt-manager - vm-bhyve A vm-bhyve template can look like this: loader="uefi" graphics="yes" xhci_mouse="yes" cpu=2 cpu_sockets=1 cpu_cores=2 memory=4G network0_type="virtio-net" network0_switch="public" disk0_type="nvme" disk0_name="disk0.img" disk1_type="ahci-cd" disk1_dev="custom" disk1_name="/path/to/disc.iso" Sample config: https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/blob/master/sample-templates/config.sample https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/blob/master/sample-tem... I use Jails to run applications like Postgres, Redis, Python api in an isolated environment. Jails is native FreeBSD, but isolated.
