So essentially they're re-implementing what's already provided by the following tech in different ways...

This is their own tech.

One *might* use it to make hardware agnostic guest images while reserving almost all the system for the guest.Last edited by k1e0x; 20 December 2019, 04:04 PM.

Afaik the only place where I know people use Bhyve is FreeNAS.
Bhyve does no emulation and is a very thin, simple layer. (as opposed to KVM or ESXi that are more like the kitchen sink)
A Bhyve host might have less than 10 PID's on the system in total. (typical Linux would have hundreds)
On a kernel-based virtualization host you only need a few services (ssh, network, and if you want something fancy you can add a web GUI or an API receiver like libvirt in headless mode) regardless of the technology used.
