Looking for a list of corporate companies/organizations (or schools/Universities) that are using xen to host some of their Virtual Machines. Any links? Just gathering info in case I''m asked "Why are you using xen", and "Who else is using it?"

That''s one of the issues with software that doesn''t need a license - people can use it and there''s no one they have to tell (and pay money to) so there''s no real way of tracking how many use it. I use it at work, but we don''t shout about it. And I use it at home.

But some big players on the list like Amazon''s AWS, Oracle, Rackspace and Huawei should serve his purpose well. Wei.
