Detailed explanation-1: -A hypervisor, also known as a virtual machine monitor or VMM, is software that creates and runs virtual machines (VMs). A hypervisor allows one host computer to support multiple guest VMs by virtually sharing its resources, such as memory and processing.
Detailed explanation-2: -A bare-metal or Type 1 hypervisor is significantly different from a hosted or Type 2 hypervisor. Although both are capable of hosting virtual machines (VMs), a hosted hypervisor runs on top of a parent OS, whereas a bare-metal hypervisor is installed directly onto the server hardware.
Detailed explanation-3: -Virtualization allows the same host to run multiple “guest” operating systems, and easily move virtual machines between hosts. Windows 10 virtualization is managed by Microsoft’s own hypervisor, called Hyper-V.
Detailed explanation-4: -A Hyper-V cluster can support up to 64 nodes with a maximum of 8000 VMs. Each node can support a maximum of 1024 VMs.
