Q1) OpenVZ 7 = Virtuozzo Linux 7. They are same product, share the same EOL date (July 2023), am I right?

yes

Quote:

Q2) "Virtuozzo 7" is a commercial product, based on "Virtuozzo Linux 7". and "Virtuozzo 7" is the enhancement on top of "Virtuozzo Linux 7" ?

Vz7 is is commercial product based on OpenVz7,
it have support, ReadyKernel and some other enhancements.

Quote:

Q3) It seems ReadyKernel no longer available for open source "Virtuozzo Linux 7". There seems no other alternative kpatch kernel solutions available for "Virtuozzo Linux 7" at the market yet.


ReadyKernel is available for Vz7 only,
as far as we know there are no alternative solutions for our kernel,

I would like to pay your attention:
we use ReadyKernel not only for widely known security bugfixes,
we use it to release fixes for customers issues.
These patches are based on feedback of our customers
and generated internally as result of work of our support and maintenance teams.

I doubt that any alternative live-patching vendors can provide something similar,
in best case they will just follow us.
So I do not think OpenVz7 kernel will be supported by any other live-patching vendors.
