1.WHAT IS VIRTUALIZATION?

--it is a technique of splitting the physical resources into many logical resources
as per our requirement
--this technology transform hardware resources into software resources
--virtualization means running multiple operating systems on a single physical
system simultaneously

i.500sq feet area
ii.80 physical servers(capex)
a)30=infrastructure servers(DNS,DHCP,DC,WEB SERVER,BILLING SERVER,ANTIVIRUS)
b)50=application servers(PRODUCT SELL AND PUCHASE)

iii. cooling system for 80 servers(capex+opex)

2.WHAT IS HYPERVISOR?
--hypervisor is a firmware and software which creates and run virtual machine
--a hypervisor is also called as VMM(virtual machine manager)

3.WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF HYPERVISORS?


--there are 2 types of hypervisors
i)Type-1 hypervisor
ii)Type-2 hypervisor

i)Type-1 hypervisor
--this is also called as Bare Metal or Native hypervisor
--type-1 hypervisor is a firmware which is used to create hardware level
virtualization
--it is used in enterprises
--this hypervisor runs directly on the host computer's hardware to control the
hardware resources and to manage the guest operating system
--this creates hardware level virtualization
--examples
a)vmware-ESXi
b)Citrix-Xenserver
c)Microsoft-Hyper-v hypervisor
--Vmware Esxi is a types-1 hypervisor which runs on the host server hardware
without any underlying OS
--type-1 hypervisor behaves like an operating system

ii)Type-2 hypervisor
--this is also called as hosted hypervisor
--type-2 hypervisor is a software which is used to create software level
virtualization
--used for testing purpose or for learning purpose
--the hypervisor that runs within a conventional operating system environment is
called as type-2 hypervisor
--it does not have direct access of host hardware resources
--this creates software level virtualization
--examples
a)Vmware-workstation
b)Oracle-virtual box
c)Microsoft-virtual pc

4.WHAT IS VIRTUAL MACHINE?


--a virtual machine is a file called as an image which behaves like an actual
computer
--a virtual machine contains virtual hardware and virtual operating system but
feels like a physical computer
--a virtual machine is called as guest which is created within another computing
environment called as host
--multiple virtual machines can exist within a single host at one time

5.WHAT IS HOST OS?


--the operating system which is installed on a host machine is called as host OS
--guest OS runs on host OS
--a host OS can run multiple guest OS at a time

6.WHAT IS GUEST OS?


--the operating system which is installed within a virtual machine is called as
guest operating system
