PowerVM had live migration in 2007 [1]. VMware released VMotion in 2003
[2] so I guest the trailblazer was VMware.

I'll try again.
1. In mid-2010, IBM indicated that it planned to release z/VM Live Guest
Relocation.
2. In November, 2011, IBM released z/VM Live Guest Relocation. It shipped
(and is shipping) as part of the z/VM Single System Image feature.
3. In April, 2018 (earlier this month), IBM indicated that it plans to
include z/VM Single System Image in the base z/VM operating system, in the
next release of z/VM. (Standard disclaimers apply, i.e. that plans might
change.)
