  2. VM-aware storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VM-Aware_Storage

    Independently of VMware, several startups also began to provide VM-aware storage products using existing virtual infrastructure management interfaces. These storage products are designed to support the same VM abstractions and allow storage management at the granularity of VMs. VMware announced its own vSphere storage appliance in 2011. [8]

  3. VirtualBox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualBox

    [8] [9] For some guest operating systems, a "Guest Additions" package of device drivers and system applications is available, [10] [11] which typically improves performance, especially that of graphics, and allows changing the resolution of the guest OS automatically when the window of the virtual machine on the host OS is resized.

  4. Distributed file system for cloud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_file_system...

    Modern data centers must support large, heterogenous environments, consisting of large numbers of computers of varying capacities. Cloud computing coordinates the operation of all such systems, with techniques such as data center networking (DCN), the MapReduce framework, which supports data-intensive computing applications in parallel and distributed systems, and virtualization techniques ...

  5. Virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualization

    Virtual file system: an abstraction layer on top of a more concrete file system, allowing client applications to access different types of concrete file systems in a uniform way; Storage hypervisor: the software that manages storage virtualization and combines physical storage resources into one or more flexible pools of logical storage [29]

  6. Linux on Apple devices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_on_Apple_devices

    Linux can be dual-booted on Macs that use Motorola 680x0 processors [5] (only 68020 and higher, [5] and only non-"EC" processor variants since an MMU is required [6]).The Linux/mac68k community project provides resources to do so, [7] [8] and an m68k community port of the Debian Linux distribution is also available.

  7. Virtual appliance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_appliance

    The file format of the virtual appliance is the concern of the cloud provider and usually not relevant to the cloud user even though the cloud user may be the owner of the virtual appliance. However, challenges may arise with the transfer of virtual appliance ownership or transfer of virtual appliances between cloud data centers.

  8. Live migration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_migration

    With the VM suspended, a minimal subset of the execution state of the VM (CPU state, registers and, optionally, non-pageable memory) is transferred to the target. The VM is then resumed at the target. Concurrently, the source actively pushes the remaining memory pages of the VM to the target - an activity known as pre-paging.
