Elevate Your Business with Azure Virtual Machines: A Case Study

A virtual machine (VM) is a software-based emulation of a physical computer system. It allows multiple operating systems to run on a single physical machine by dividing the resources of the host machine among the virtual machines. Each virtual machine operates independently and can run its own operating system and applications.

Virtual machines are commonly used in software development, testing, and deployment, as they provide a flexible and scalable environment for running multiple operating systems and applications on a single physical machine. They also help in reducing hardware costs, as multiple virtual machines can run on a single physical server.

Popular virtual machine software includes VMware, VirtualBox, and Hyper-V. These software platforms provide tools for creating, managing, and running virtual machines on a host machine. Virtual machines are widely used in cloud computing environments, where they provide a way to efficiently utilize resources and scale applications as needed.
