The last roadmap I have seen says:

9.0 : VBOX and KVM
9.1 : VBOX, KVM and HPE DL380
9.2 : VBOX, KVM, VMware, HPE DL380 and HPE DL385
9.2-x : VBOX, KVM, VMware, HPE DL580 and unspecified Del servers (and I 
assume still HPE DL380 and HPE DL385)

(VBOX must be VirtualBox)

so a mix of physical, commercial virtual and free virtual.
