Detailed explanation-2: -CPU virtualization CPU (central processing unit) virtualization is the fundamental technology that makes hypervisors, virtual machines, and operating systems possible. It allows a single CPU to be divided into multiple virtual CPUs for use by multiple VMs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Virtualization relies on software to simulate hardware functionality and create a virtual computer system. This enables IT organizations to run more than one virtual system – and multiple operating systems and applications – on a single server.

Detailed explanation-4: -Each virtual machine contains a set of its own virtual hardware and there are four primary resources that a virtual machine needs in order to correctly function. These are CPU, memory, network, and hard disk. These four resources look like physical hardware to the guest operating systems and applications.

Detailed explanation-5: -Virtualization creates a simulated, or virtual, computing environment as opposed to a physical environment. Virtualization often includes computer-generated versions of hardware, operating systems, storage devices, and more.
