8335-GTA vs 8335-GCA
The primary difference between the IBM Power8 8335-GTA vs 8335-GCA servers is the inclusion of PowerKVM on the 8335-GCA.

PowerKVM is server virtualization (open source) that is based on IBM POWER8 processor tech. It includes the Linux open source technology of KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) virtualization, and it complements the performance, scalability, and security qualities of Linux. The inclusion of KVM offers an opportunity to simplify your virtualization infrastructure with a single hypervisor across multiple platforms.
