Hypervisors – Cloud –

Virtualization – & Oracle 

In the fast-moving world of today, a good knowledge of hypervisors, Cloud, and virtualization is needed by IT professionals for saving costs and faster deployment of Test & Dev environments. Our focus is on Oracle VirtualBox and VMWare. Oracle VM VirtualBox is a lightweight application that allows you to run virtual machines (VMs) on a variety of host operating systems.

 

What is are hypervisors?

Hypervisors are what make virtual machines possible, and they aren’t just for servers anymore. You probably use one every day and don’t even know it. If you don’t use one now, you will in the near future.

A hypervisor is also known as a virtual machine manager (VMM).

The hypervisor installed on the server hardware controls the guest operating system running on the host machine. Its main job is to cater to the needs of the guest operating system and effectively manage it such that the instances of multiple operating systems do not interrupt one another.
Hypervisors can be divided into two types:
  • Type 1: Also known as native or bare-metal hypervisors, these run directly on the host computer’s hardware to control the hardware resources and to manage guest operating systems. Examples of Type 1 hypervisors include VMware ESXi, Citrix XenServer, and Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor.
  • Type 2: Also known as hosted hypervisors, these run within a formal operating system environment. In this type, the hypervisor runs as a distinct second layer while the operating system runs as a third layer above the hardware.

Virtualization

What is Virtualization?

Virtualization refers to the creation of a virtual resource such as a server, desktop, operating system, file, storage or network.
       The technology behind virtualization is known as a virtual manager, or virtual machine monitor (VMM), which is installed on a hypervisor. VMMs separate computer environments from the physical hardware, making it possible for one server to run several operating systems and applications simultaneously. These virtualized systems run independently of the physical infrastructure. For businesses, that means all kinds of benefits, including lower costs, better backup and disaster recovery, a better testing environment and better migration to the cloud.
