        <h1>Internal drivers</h1>
        <p>
      The libvirt public API delegates its implementation to one or
      more internal drivers, depending on the <a href="uri.html">connection URI</a>
      passed when initializing the library. There is always a hypervisor driver
      active, and if the libvirt daemon is available there will usually be a
      network and storage driver active.
    </p>
        <h2>Hypervisor drivers</h2>

      The hypervisor drivers currently supported by libvirt are:
