The VMware virtual machine (e.g. [VMware Workstation Player](https://www.vmware.com/products/workstation-player/workstation-player-evaluation.html.html.html), [VMware Workstation Pro or Fusion](https://www.vmware.com/content/vmware/vmware-published-sites/us/products/desktop-hypervisor.html.html.html)) is great for those occasions where SBC performance just isn't enough.

The [VMware ESXi Hypervisor](https://www.vmware.com/products/esxi-and-esx.html/), described as a "Bare Metal Hypervisor" aka [Type-1 hypervisor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervisor), is part of e.g. the [VMware vSphere Hypervisor platform](https://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere-hypervisor.html/) ("appliance server"). It allows to run and manage multiple virtual machines on one x86_64 machine. That way it can be compared to the [Proxmox](#proxmox) appliance server.
