What is virtualization?

Virtualization

Virtualization relies on software to simulate hardware functionality and create a virtual compute environment. Virtualization divides the hardware of a single computer into multiple virtual computers. It enables organizations to run more than one virtual system – and multiple operating systems and applications on a single server.

Virtual machines could be leveraged to provision and manage Virtual desktops. Virtual desktops consisting of operating systems and applications allow users to access it from anywhere from any device. The software emulates the functions of physical hardware such as servers, applications.

The resulting benefits include economies of scale and greater efficiency.

What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing makes it possible to access IT resources such as servers, databases, storage, networking, software, intelligence, and analytics over the Internet, referred to as the cloud. It eliminates the need to buy, own or maintain any hardware and software. With cloud computing, you need to pay only for the services used. It allows you to scale as your business grows and expands. Thus, it eliminates capital costs and reduces operating costs and ensures productivity, reliability, security, and performance.

There are four main types of cloud computing – private clouds, public clouds, hybrid clouds, and multi-clouds. And, there are three types of cloud computing services – Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-service (SaaS). Infrastructure-as-a-code is different from Infrastructure-as-a-service because it uses code to manage and provision infrastructure. And this is done to eliminate manual processes to get things done faster.

What is virtualization and cloud computing?

Cloud computing cannot exist without virtualization. It is virtualization that powers cloud computing. As virtualization emulates hardware, it allows multiple users to access cloud computing services. Small and medium businesses (SMBs) cannot afford the cost of enterprise applications. However, they can enjoy its use by accessing it through the cloud.

Thus, cloud computing and virtualization allow SMBs to enjoy enterprise applications without implementing them. Virtualization in a cloud computing landscape helps businesses maximize hardware use, improve business operations and ensure the security of network resources, storage devices, operating systems, and hardware platforms.

The ease of scaling vertical or horizontal is easy with cloud computing.
