Hello friends
In my opinion the diference is, this environment is test/desenv?? Ok ..., is homolog or production ??!! Hummm, the client really need a help/support of one company! If The Client have a company who give The Support in OS and Products, ok but if isn't I recommend RedHat!
Now talking in RedHat we can talk about kvm and xen! There is a New product named RHEV, Enterprise Virtualization which will provide solutions to virtualization in HA with web manager, a cool suit confronting with vmware!
Ps: RHEV use kvm! ;-)
So I recommend a research about RHEV and Xen (RedHat recommendations)
Cheers

Is it just for servers, then go xen, do you plan on doing VDI (windows) then again xen has good solutions.
Plan on doing Linux VDI look at Ovirt a kvm solution

Well, I've been using Xen, however there is a machine that would be
really good to use -- but xen will not work on it, fails to boot
properly. IBM X3850 8864 .... so that machine now has Oracle Linux 6 on
it and I'll probably end up switching to KVM as it has much better
support in the kernel and I've had no help on the X3850 when I've asked
questions here.
Cheers
