What type of guest OS do you plan to run?
Will it be Windows, Linux, or a mix of the two? If it is purely Linux, you may
want to look at OpenVZ as well as Xen and KVM since you mentioned the jobs
would be I/O intense.

yes, My question should be if I want to run I/O intensive jobs. Which is more
suitable?
And also, to learn Xen 4, which materials you experts suggest?
