What virtualization method ensures users always run the latest version of an application?
Application virtualization
What is application virtualization?
Applications are stored on a server.
How does application virtualization ensure users have the latest version?
Updates occur on the server so all users access the updated version automatically
The applications are downloaded onto the server. When it updates, everyone has access to the updated version.
What is client-side virtualization?
Running virtual machines locally on a user’s workstation using local hardware resources.
The hypervisor, the virtualization software is stored directly onto the local computer.
Note: my wording.
Name three examples of client-side virtualization software.
Hyper-V
VirtualBox
VMware
What is server-side virtualization?
Running multiple virtual servers on one physical server using a hypervisor
Primary goal of server-side virtualization?
Improve hardware utilization through server consolidation
Example of server-side virtualization platform?
VMware ESXi
