Oracle VM VirtualBox is a compact and efficient virtualization solution for Intel
and AMD x86 systems. Each guest runs in a separate virtual machine and needs
no additional software or drivers to run. To improve performance and allow the
guests greater access to resources within the host platform, Guest Additions are
provided for all supported guest operating systems.
While not as efficient as Oracle Solaris Containers, VirtualBox can take advan-
tage of many of the resource management facilities available in Oracle Solaris to
provide an excellent and well-managed environment for hosting a wide variety of
applications. While features such as the internal RDP server and seamless mode
make VirtualBox an obvious choice for virtualizing desktops, its performance and
use of advanced virtualization features in modern hardware also make it a good
choice for handling server workloads.
