XEN vs. KVM

[v....@uplink.ua]

Dear colleagues,

I'm using CloudStack with KVM for a year and a half, but, as I can see, some
people would recommend to use XEN instead of KVM, because it's "better".

Would anybody be so kind as to explain why XEN is better than KVM?

Thank you very much in advance!

The following slides "Hypervisor Selection in CloudStack" may also be helpful. They also present the capabilities of CloudStack which can be enabled based on the hypervisor selection:
