What is Virtualization?
A VM is a computer created by a hypervisor that behaves like a real machine but does not directly control physical hardware.
What is Type 1 Hypervisor?
Also known as “Bare Metal” due to hypervisor running directly off of hardware.
Example: Hardwar- Hypervisor - Guest OS/VM
What is type 2 Hypervisor?
runs off of your normal OS
example: Hardware - Host OS - Hypervisor - Guest OS/VM
Why would you want to run a VM?
So you can run two different OS’s simultaneously without having to commit to an OS, and more convenient than a Dual Boot
What are the two types of models used for VM services
Server-based (Terminal services)
Client-based (Application streaming)
What is a Server-based (Terminal service)?
Terminal services are server-based solution that runs the application and OS ran on a central server, and users access them remotely
What is Client-based (Application streaming)?
Application streaming is a client-based solution where applications are hosted centrally and streamed to a user’s PC on demand.
What is a Hypervisor?
Hypervisor is what allows one machine to run multiple virtual machines, it allocates some of computer’s capabilities to the VMs
