A hypervisor, also known as a virtual machine monitor (VMM) or virtualizer, is a type of computer software, firmware or hardware that creates and runs virtual machines. A computer on which a hypervisor runs one or more virtual machines is called a host machine, and each virtual machine is called a guest machine.
In computer science, bare machine (or bare metal computer) refers to a computer which has no operating system. [1] The software executed by a bare machine, commonly called a "bare metal program" or "bare metal application", [ 2 ] is designed to interact directly with hardware.
EmbeddedXEN results from several Years of Research in the field of ARM-based CPUs and hypervisor technology based on XEN. The overall architecture has been revisited in order to support the hardware diversity of ARM CPUs platforms and provide an excellent framework to deal with a native OS and a third-party OS cross-compiled from a different ...
Harvester is a type 1 hypervisor designed to be deployed on bare metal servers. It can be manually installed using a ISO disk or USB install, or installed over the network via a PXE Boot server such as IPXE .
XtratuM is a bare-metal hypervisor specially designed for embedded real-time systems available for the instruction sets LEON2/3/4 (SPARC v8), ARM v7 and V8 processors (TMS570, R5, A9, A52, A53) and RISC-V processor. [1] It was initially developed by the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (Spain).
VMware ESXi (formerly ESX) is an enterprise-class, type-1 hypervisor developed by VMware, a subsidiary of Broadcom, for deploying and serving virtual computers.As a type-1 hypervisor, ESXi is not a software application that is installed on an operating system (OS); instead, it includes and integrates vital OS components, such as a kernel.
In computing, a client hypervisor is a hypervisor that is designed for use on client computers such as laptops, desktops or workstations, rather than on a server. It is a technique of host virtualization which enables the parallel execution of multiple operating systems (or virtual machines ) on shared hardware.
A separation kernel relies on hardware virtualization functionality to do the heavy lifting. This creates efficient, tamper-proof, and non-bypassable virtual machines. Hardware resources are robustly partitioned into almost zero overhead VMs populated with a mix of OSes, RTOSes, and bare-metal applications.
