Different types of Virtualization

 

• Hardware Virtualization
• Desktop Virtualization
• Storage Virtualization

Hardware Virtualization :

•  "Hardware Virtualization"involves embedding virtual machine software into a hardware component. This process is known as Hypervisor

• This technology is to consolidate many small physical servers into one large physical server so that the processor can be used more effectively. The operating system running on a physical server gets converted into a distinct OS running inside the virtual machine.

• The hypervisor controls the processor, memory and other components by allowing several different operating systems to run on the same machine independently. The operating system running on the machine will appear to have its own processor, memory and other components.
  
  
   
  
  

Desktop Virtualization :

•  Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) allows client desktop workloads (operating system, application, user data) to be hosted and executed on servers in the data center.

• This solution allows you to virtualize Windows & Linux desktops in the Data-Center and deliver them on demand to any user — anywhere
