Hive Fabric vs Leostream Platform

Hive Fabric is a virtualization platform for Windows and Linux desktop and server workloads, designed for deployments from edge sites to multiple enterprise locations. Built on the open-source KVM hypervisor, it combines hyperconverged and RAM-based storage with support for network and cloud storage. A browser portal provides access to desktops, servers, and physical systems over RDP or an integrated HTML5 client. Administrators can manage multiple sites and clusters from one web interface, and desktop pools can span hosts without shared storage, with live migration between them. Access can use MFA through RADIUS or token-based two-factor authentication. Data Protection replicates VMs, User Volumes, and Templates to selected cloud or on-premises storage on daily, weekly, or monthly schedules. Hive Sense checks phone-home data hourly and may initiate support engagement when it detects anomalies. Installation uses a single ISO. Community Edition costs nothing and provides a perpetual license for one physical host and unlimited VMs; activation requires ClusterID registration.
