This document provides an introduction to virtualization. It defines virtualization as the separation of a resource or service request from its underlying physical delivery. Virtualization allows multiple logical instances of software or hardware to run simultaneously on a single physical resource. Key advantages of virtualization include cost savings, increased hardware utilization, high availability, reliability, security and easier management. The document discusses hypervisors, which provide a layer between virtual machines and hardware. The two main types of hypervisors are Type 1 and Type 2, which differ in their architecture and efficiency. It also outlines different types of virtualization like server, storage and network virtualization. Resources for further learning about virtualization are provided at the end.

Agenda
 Defining Virtualization
 Need and Advantages of Virtualization
 Hypervisor
 Different Types of Virtualization
 Resources
 Questions
Definition of virtualization
 The term virtualization broadly describes the
separation of a resource or request for a service
from the underlying physical delivery of that
service
 Virtualization essentially means to create
multiple, logical instances of software or
hardware on a single physical hardware
resource. This technique simulates the available
hardware and gives every application running on
top of it, the feel that it is the unique holder of
the resource.
Before Virtualization
After Virtualization
Need/Advantages of Virtualization
 Cost Savings (Hardware, Power, Space,
People)
 Instant provisioning
 Pooling hardware resource
 Server Utilization
 Built-In High Availability
 Zero Downtime Failover
 Best Performance
 Reliability
 Security
 Fastest, Easiest Management
Examples of Impact of Virtualization
Impacts Continued ….
Impacts
Hypervisor/Virtual Machine
Monitor(VMM)
 The hypervisor is a layer of software that
resides below the virtual machines and
above the hardware
 Each “guest” OS is managed by VMM
 Two types of Hypervisor
 Type 1 and Type 2
 Differed by Architecture
Hypervisor
Type1 Hypervisor
 Directly runs on Top of Hardware
 Efficient because it can directly communicate
with H/W resources
 More secure/reliable because one malicious
guest can’t affect the other guests
Type 1Hypervisors List
 VMware vSphere / ESXi
 Citrix XenServer
 Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V
 Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV)
 KVM (Open Source)
Vmware ESX
Type 2 Hypervisor
 Is an application that runs atop a traditional
operating system
 Actual OS leverages the hardware resources to
hypervisor
 Type 2 hypervisors are not as efficient as Type
 Every time a virtual machine performs a disk
read, a network operation, or any other
hardware interaction, it hand off the request to
the operating system
 Easy to install
Type 2 Hypervisor list
 Vmware Workstation
 Microsoft Windows Virtual PC
 Oracle’s VirtualBox
Type 2 Hypervisor
Windows XP On top of Linux
Different Types of Virtualization
 Server Virtualization or OS Virtualization

 Storage virtualization
