Streamlining Operations: How Virtual Machines Are Reshaping the Online Landscape

A virtual machine is a software-based emulation of a physical computer that operates like a separate computer within a computer. It allows users to run multiple operating systems on a single physical machine, enabling them to run applications that are not supported by their primary operating system. Virtual machines are commonly used for testing software, running multiple operating systems on a single machine, and isolating applications for security purposes. They are widely used in cloud computing, server consolidation, and software development environments.
