<p>In the 1990s, Xen was a part of a research project to build a public computing infrastructure on the Internet led by Ian Pratt and Keir Fraser at The University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory. The Xen Project is now one of the most popular open source hypervisors and amasses more than 10 million users, and this October marks our 15th anniversary.</p>
<p>From its beginnings, Xen technology focused on building a modular and flexible architecture, a high degree of customizability, and security. This security mindset from the outset led to inclusion of non-core security technologies, which eventually allowed the Xen Project to excel outside of the data center and be a trusted source for security and embedded vendors (ex. Qubes, Bromium, Bitdefender, Star Labs, Zentific, Dornerworks, Bosch, BAE systems), and also<a href="https://www.automotivelinux.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2018/06/GoogleDrive_The-AGL-software-defined-connected-car-architecture.pdf"> a leading hypervisor contender</a> for the automotive space.</p>
<p>As the Xen Project looks to a future of virtualization everywhere, we reflect back on some of our major achievements over the last 15 years. To celebrate, we’ve created <a href="https://15anniversary.xenproject.org/#2008">an infographic that captures some of our key milestones</a> — <a href="https://ctt.ac/wL0Ud">share it</a> on social.</p>
