I'm having trouble determining whether when using a hosting company that uses Xen virtualization and Intel processors with AESNI embedded encryption, I would have access to AESNI (i.e., is it an available hardware resource in such environments).

At the command line type:
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep aes
If it's there, it's supported; if it's not, it's not.
To answer your question though, Xen 4.0.1+ support AES-NI instructions in guests.

Do you have any reference for that? – Brian Minton Mar 21 '17 at 18:52
