Unlocking the Potential of Virtual Machines: A Deep Dive into Operating System Innovation

A virtual machine is a software that creates a virtual environment, emulating a physical computer system. It allows users to run multiple operating systems on a single physical machine, providing flexibility and efficiency in managing resources. Virtual machines are commonly used for testing software compatibility, running multiple applications, and isolating different environments for security purposes. They are also used in cloud computing environments to optimize resource utilization and scalability.
