17. Virtualization Advantages
● Virtualization is the foundation on which cloud infrastructure is built.
● provide secure, isolated sandboxes for running untrusted applications.
● Reliability and Availability,
– A software failure in one VM does not affect other VMs.
● Cost,
– Server consolidation can bring cost reductions from hardware economies of scale,
personnel cost reductions, floor space, and software licenses.
- Typical savings: 29% to 64%.
● Load Balancing,
– The state of a VM is completely encapsulated in the VMM: easy to migrate VMs to other
platforms to improve performance.
