XVMIs
XVMIs, or Extended Virtual Machine Interfaces, are a set of specifications and protocols designed to facilitate communication and resource sharing between different virtual machine environments. They aim to address the challenges of interoperability in heterogeneous virtualized infrastructures where various hypervisors and operating systems might coexist. The core idea behind XVMIs is to provide a standardized way for virtual machines to access and manage hardware resources, migrate between hosts, and interact with management layers, regardless of the underlying virtualization technology.
These interfaces define common abstractions for virtual hardware components such as network interfaces, storage devices, and
The development of XVMIs is typically driven by industry consortia or open-source initiatives seeking to promote
