So then how can you run the ESXi hypervisor for free if there is no free version? To better understand how this works, you should accept that there is no free version but rather a free license.
In truth there is no free version of VMware ESX or ESXi, nor is there any need to upgrade from ESXi to ESX in order to use any of the advanced features of the product. I have heard phrases like, “Can I use the free version of ESX?” which then often leads to questions like, “If I need advanced features like VMotion, do I have to upgrade to the full version of ESX?” These questions can lead to confusion so it is important to understand the basics of VMware’s free hypervisor. Ever since VMware announced that their ESXi hypervisor would be available free of charge, people have had a (somewhat) misguided notion that there is a “free version” of ESX.
