Well, yes and no. On modern enough hardware you can do nested virtualisation, so you can run kvm in esxi on hyper-v if you want. Not that it's very usefull, but it is a fun weekend project nonetheless.


I use nested virtualization for Windows Desktop -> Linux VM -> minikube. Works great.

Obviously you could just run minikube under Windows, but then from the Linux VM you can't "minikube ssh" and whatnot, so nested virtualization makes everything a lot simpler.


You can even do nested virtualization without hardware support, it's just super duper slow and not a lot of hypervisors think it's worth the complexity increase.
