1. What is Virtualization?

Virtualization refers to the process of making a “virtual version” of something like

hardware or software- virtual servers, infrastructure, devices and computing
resources. For example, creating a virtual machine that serves as a real-life
computer. Virtualization is the execution of a certain version of an object, such as a
server, desktop, storage device, application or network resources". In other words,
Virtualization is a process, which allows for the sharing of a single example or
source application between clients and multiple organizations. It does so by
providing a logical name for physical storage and by providing a reference to that
portable source on a regular basis.

2. What is Virtual Machine?

The virtual machine is the environment of the app installed on the software.
The virtual machine behaves like a real computer. Simply put, it is like
creating a computer within an existing computer. Working in a window, no
matter what the end user experience in the operating system, the same type
of experience can happen while using Virtual Machine.

3. What is Oracle VM VirtualBox?

VirtualBox is a cross-platform application. It installs on your existing and extends

the power of your existing computer so that it can run multiple applications (within
multiple virtual machines) simultaneously. Oracle VM VirtualBox is a powerful
Cross-platform Virtualization Software for x86 based applications. "Cross-
platform" means install on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris x86 computers.
And "Virtualization Software" means you can create and run multiple Virtual
Machines, running different operating systems, on the same computer at the same
time. For example, you can use Windows and Linux on your Mac, use Linux and
Solaris on your Windows PC, or use Windows on your Linux programs.
