What exactly do you want to know?

Openstack doesn't implement virtualization on it's own, it's a control
layer on top of other low level technologies and as such supports
multiple hypervisors under the hood.

You might want to read these:

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/HypervisorSupportMatrix

Does that answer your question?
