Virtualization Platforms for Academic Use #1
I was recently contacted by a school to re-design their computer systems. Well, from experience, and looking at their budget, I am thinking that a low cost thin client setup will work ideally. Each room will have 5 computers each, and there are 35 rooms with this many computers. There is also a lab of 20 computers. In total, there will be 195 thin clients, and therefore it will be necessary to have 195 virtual machines.

My concern is not with the processing power needed by the server, I have that covered. My question is what virtualization setup do you suggest I use. I am currently looking at:
  • Citirx XenServer
  • VMWare ESXi
  • Proxmox VE
  • Manually Setting Up a Virtualization Environment in RedHat/CentOS

Does anyone have any experience doing something like this, and if so what systems did you use.
