<p>Hi,</p>
<p>actually I wonder if openvz-iso-9: <br>
</p>
<p><i><font size="2"><a href="https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/9.0/x86_64/iso/" target="_blank">https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/9.0/x86_64/iso/</a></font></i></p>
<p><i><font size="2">openvz-iso-9.0.0.iso 24-Feb-2022 04:41
2.9G</font></i></p>
<p>which is supposed to be the base reference for virtuozzo 9 , <br>
</p>
<p>is the same as <br>
</p>
<p> <font size="2"><a href="http://repo.virtuozzo.com/vz/releases/" target="_blank">http://repo.virtuozzo.com/vz/releases/</a></font>
</p>
<p><i><font size="2">vz9.iso <b>20-Dec-2022 12:31</b> 2G</font></i></p>
<p>please let us know which .iso we should start with to test vz9
(open version) <i><font size="2"><br>
</font></i></p>
<p>why haven't they the same date (Feb 2022 vs Dec 2022) <i><font size="2"><br>
</font></i></p>
<p>Thanks . <i><font size="2"><br>

<p>I confirm that running openVZ 7 is rock solid, and we do use
lots of CTs, for me the best featured containers solution</p>
<p>we are expecting a continuation with VZ 9 (as 8 might be
skipped). as a public accademic school we appreciate free and
openSource software</p>
<p>but we keep purchase few virtuozzo commercial licences as much
as we can to contribute to the project . <br>

<p>as long as this:

<p><i><font size="2"><a href="https://openvz.org/" target="_blank">OpenVZ</a>
is a free, open-source virtualization solution available
under GNU GPL. OpenVZ is the base for Virtuozzo Hybrid
Server, the commercial solution that builds on OpenVZ and
offers additional benefits to customers.</font></i></p>
<p>is still true, if Virtuozzo Hybrid Server is based on the
openSource OpenVZ, I don't see any fears regarding its future .</p>

<p>but indeed, we are waiting for a VZ 9 which maybe lacks of a
clearer raodmap, for exemple, is it still as much an Ahpha
release (not to use in production) as mentioned here (Feb 2022)

May be better to use just virtual machines using QEMU-KVM and
libvirt ? <br>
<br>
This solution is very stable, very feature rich and very useful.
<br>
<br>
If you need to use very cheap virtual machines - try to use <a href="https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/" target="_blank">https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/</a>
<br>

Or you can combine Firecracker MicroVMs with Docker / OCI images

Stop to use OpenVZ, because OpenVZ 6 is End Of Life and now it
is dead project. <br>
<br>
OpenVZ 6 is just last true and fully functional OpenVZ version.
<br>
<br>
Something named OpenVZ 7, OpenVZ 8, OpenVZ 9 ... is just agony
of OpenVZ project. <br>

While openvz 7 has been getting updates, it seems openvz 8 is
fairly <br>
static, and openvz 9 seems not ready for use. <br>
<br>
Is there an intent to continue support of openvz beyond
version 7? <br>

Since openvz is a great advertisement for virtuozzo, it would
be a shame if <br>
it faded away. <br>
