CloudLinux vs FreeBSD: What are the differences?

Developers describe CloudLinux as "The super-platform for stability & efficiency in shared hosting". CloudLinux OS is designed for shared hosting providers. It isolates each customer into a separate “Lightweight Virtualized Environment” (LVE), which partitions, allocates, and limits server resources, like memory, CPU. On the other hand, FreeBSD is detailed as "An operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms". An operating system for a variety of platforms which focuses on features, speed, and stability. It is derived from BSD, the version of UNIX® developed at the University of California, Berkeley. It is developed and maintained by a large community.

CloudLinux and FreeBSD belong to "Operating Systems" category of the tech stack.

FreeBSD is an open source tool with 4.37K GitHub stars and 1.72K GitHub forks. Here's a link to FreeBSD's open source repository on GitHub.
