We’re running Triton Cloud (https://www.joyent.com/triton/compute) at work and I run Parallels on my Mac.

Triton is my favorite for so many reasons (it also runs our public cloud at mnx.io).. It runs SmartOS as the hypervisor with native Linux hypervisors in alpha stage right now.  We run instances on Bhyve, KVM, and native SmartOS zones on the Triton cloud.

/me waves to Robert!

I'm using VMware ESXi vCenter at work.

I've tried many of the virtualization products mentioned in the video.
Virtualbox, QEM, Proxmox, xcd.
I've also tried some of the environments for managing virtual machines and
containers like Kubernetes, Pivotal Cloud Foundation and Openstack.
