I have no information on the cost of KVM because I downloaded it for the lab and not for production. It's free, but I don't know if that's the case for people using it in a production environment. I believe you have to pay for it if you use it in production, but I don't know the actual KVM cost.
The price is fair compared to others. But in our local market, it's a problem to get budget approval from management. That's why they are trying to get those products so we can give them the price benefit. But if you consider the international market or other products, it's sometimes better than their price.
KVM stands for Kernel-based Virtual Machine, which is an open-source virtualization technology that is embedded in Linux.
