Maximizing Efficiency with Virtual Machines in Data Centers

A virtual machine (VM) is a software-based emulation of a physical computer that allows users to run multiple operating systems on a single physical machine. It allows users to create isolated environments for running different applications and operating systems without affecting the host machine. Virtual machines are commonly used for testing software compatibility, running multiple operating systems on a single machine, and for cloud computing purposes. They provide flexibility, scalability, and cost savings by allowing users to efficiently use hardware resources.
