The hypervisor your infrastructure runs on
ASAS HV runs production virtual machines on KVM and QEMU — open, portable and fully under your control, with live migration, high availability and Arabic-first operations through Lejam.
What is ASAS HV?
Asas HV is the compute layer of the VirtuWa platform. It is built on the widely adopted Linux KVM/QEMU virtualization stack, managed through libvirt, and virtualizes CPU, memory, storage and network resources. Hosts are grouped into clusters and operated centrally from Lejam Cloud Manager.
Why it matters
A hypervisor decision sets your cost base, your portability and your negotiating position for the next decade. ASAS HV keeps that decision open: standard formats, standard interfaces, no proprietary dependency, and an operating experience your team can run in Arabic or English with regional engineering support behind it.
Core hypervisor capabilities
KVM & QEMU virtualization
Hardware-assisted virtualization on the Linux kernel, managed through libvirt.
Virtual machine lifecycle
Create, start, stop, restart, resize, clone and decommission virtual machines.
Live migration
Move running workloads between hosts without downtime for maintenance and rebalancing.
High availability
Restart protected workloads on healthy hosts after a host failure.
Snapshots, clones & restore
Point-in-time snapshots, fast cloning and validated restore workflows.
Storage integration
Block and file storage, shared datastores and per-workload performance profiles.
Networking
Bridged and VLAN-backed networking with segmentation for workload isolation.
Security & access
Role-based access control, audited administrative actions and governed console access.
Automation
REST APIs and Terraform-driven provisioning through Mehad.

How ASAS HV fits together
Measured in VirtuWa test environments
Figures below are internal engineering test results from VirtuWa lab clusters, not performance guarantees. Test conditions are documented on the Engineering Validation page.
What you need to run it
Host requirements
- x86-64 servers with hardware virtualization enabled (Intel VT-x / AMD-V)
- Supported enterprise Linux base on each host
- Redundant network paths for management and workload traffic
- Shared storage for live migration and high availability
Environment options
- Connected, restricted-egress or fully air-gapped deployment
- Single-site clusters or multi-site designs
- Side-by-side operation with an existing VMware estate
- Local patch and update workflows for offline sites
What to validate in a proof of concept
- Provision and lifecycle a virtual machine end to end
- Snapshot and revert a running workload
- Clone a workload onto a different host
- Live-migrate a running VM and evacuate a host
- Trigger a host failure and observe HA recovery
- Validate storage performance against your profile
- Validate network segmentation and VLAN mapping
- Validate RBAC roles and audit log completeness
- Validate REST API and Terraform provisioning
- Validate backup and restore with Hemaya
