The future of virtual machines: What to expect in the coming years

Virtual machines are software-based emulation of physical computers that can run multiple operating systems on a single physical server. They allow users to create and run multiple virtual environments on a single physical machine, providing flexibility, scalability, and cost savings. Virtual machines are often used in cloud computing environments, data centers, and software development to test applications in different operating systems without the need for separate physical hardware. They also provide isolation between virtual machines, enhancing security and improving resource utilization.
