bhyve

bhyve (pronounced "bee hive", formerly written as BHyVe) is a type-2 type-1 hypervisor that is part of FreeBSD.[1]

It runs FreeBSD 9+, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Linux and MS Windows[2] desktop (versions Vista, 7, 8/8.1/8.2 and 10), as well as MS Windows Server (versions 2008/2008R2, 2012/2012R2 and 2016 Technical Preview 2 and 3) guests.

Current development efforts aim at widening support for other x86-64 operating systems.
