What is the differance between Xen and XenServer?
Is it correct in saying XenServer is a commercial product with advance features compared to Xen though both are hypervisor based VM.
Also i saw this article

I always thought hypervisor based VM default OS was a custom OS built within the product but the article suggests that you can install XEN on most linux distro or i am missing something here... does this also apply to XenServer
Not to start a flamewar, but I was curious about real world scenarios, and peoples experience with and recommendations for either.
I have been asked to plan out a smallish virtualization environment (10-12 Dell hosts, iSCSI Equalogic backend), and when reviewing the cost of going with VMWare over Citrix, I can't seem to justify the costs. I figure since Amazon runs on Xen, it must be pretty decent, but am I missing something?
How is it possible to monitor the data used (in and out) for each node in XenServer?

We are in need of several licenses (Standard/Enterprise) and just want to make sure we are getting the best price. For anybody that uses it, who are you getting your licenses from? And how much are you paying from these resellers?
