 What is Virtualization

lTechnology for partitioning one physical server into multiple
 virtual servers.
lEach Virtual Machine
   – Runs it’s own Operating system
   – Runs it’s own applications
   – Isolated from other VM’s.
lVirtualization is not:
   – Simulation
   – Emulation

What is a Virtual Machine (VM)?
        l A software platform that,
          like a physical computer,
          runs an operating system
          and applications
        l A discrete set of files, the
          main files being
            –   Configuration file
            –   Virtual disk file
            –   Log file
            –   Etc.

 How Does Virtualization Work?
       l Allows multiple
         operating system
         instances to run
         concurrently
         within virtual
         machines on a
         single computer
       l A virtualization
         layer is installed,
         which uses either
         a hosted or
         hypervisor
         architecture

 Advantages to Virtualization

                lReduce physical number of servers
                lReduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
                lImproved Availability and Business Continuity
                lIncrease IT efficiency
                lIncrease efficiency for development and test
                 environments.
