Xen and Solaris Zones aren't competing technologies. You should consider using them in a complementary fashion, because they actually operate at different levels in the software stack.
Xen technology virtualises the hardware to allow multiple operating system kernels to run simultaneously on an entire machine, while Solaris Zones virtualises the operating system to allow multiple operating system environments to coexist on a single Solaris kernel.
So depending on the problem at hand, you might decide to use these two technologies either independently or in combination.
Q. Are Solaris Zones a better technology than Xen?
