Innovative Uses of VMware Virtual Machines in Modern IT Environments

A virtual machine (VM) is a software-based emulation of a physical computer that allows multiple operating systems to run on a single physical machine. Each virtual machine runs as a separate entity, with its own virtual CPU, memory, storage, and network interfaces. This allows for better resource utilization, efficient application deployment, and easier management of multiple environments on a single physical server.
