Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) formerly known as Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, is an x86 virtualization product developed by Red Hat,cite-ref-2[2] and is based on the KVM hypervisor.cite-ref-3[3] Red Hat Virtualization uses the SPICE protocol and VDSM (Virtual Desktop Server Manager) with a RHEL-based centralized management server.cite-ref-4[4]cite-ref-5[5] The platform can access user and group information from either an Active Directory or FreeIPA domain which enables it to allocate resources effectively based on permissions.cite-ref-6[6] Built for use in enterprise datacenters, RHV can support up to 400 hosts in a single cluster and no upper limit on the total number of hosts it can support.cite-ref-7[7] Development of RHV has ceased and as of August 2020 the product is now only receiving maintenance updates, with extended life phase updates provided until 2026.cite-ref-8[8] The successor to RHV is Red Hat's OpenShift container platform.cite-ref-9[9]
