  2. Solaris Containers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solaris_Containers

    Solaris Containers (including Solaris Zones) is an implementation of operating system-level virtualization technology for x86 and SPARC systems, first released publicly in February 2004 in build 51 beta of Solaris 10, and subsequently in the first full release of Solaris 10, 2005.

  3. Blue Pill (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Pill_(software)

    Blue Pill originally required AMD-V (Pacifica) virtualization support, but was later ported to support Intel VT-x (Vanderpool) as well. It was designed by Joanna Rutkowska and originally demonstrated at the Black Hat Briefings on August 3, 2006, with a reference implementation for the Microsoft Windows Vista kernel.

  4. Virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualization

    A virtual machine implements functionality of a (physical) computer with an operating system. The software or firmware that creates a virtual machine on the host hardware is called a hypervisor or virtual machine monitor. [2] Software executed on these virtual machines is separated from the underlying hardware resources.

  5. LXC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LXC

    It provides operating system-level virtualization through a virtual environment that has its own process and network space, instead of creating a full-fledged virtual machine. LXC relies on the Linux kernel cgroups functionality [8] that was released in version 2.6.24. It also relies on other kinds of namespace isolation functionality, which ...

  6. OS-level virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-level_virtualization

    OS-level virtualization is an operating system (OS) virtualization paradigm in which the kernel allows the existence of multiple isolated user space instances, including containers (LXC, Solaris Containers, AIX WPARs, HP-UX SRP Containers, Docker, Podman), zones (Solaris Containers), virtual private servers (), partitions, virtual environments (VEs), virtual kernels (DragonFly BSD), and jails ...

  7. Single-root input/output virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-root_input/output...

    Physical functions have the ability to move data in and out of the device while virtual functions are lightweight PCIe functions that support data flowing but also have a restricted set of configuration resources. The virtual or physical functions available to the hypervisor or guest operating system depend on the PCIe device. [3]

  8. OpenVZ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openvz

    OpenVZ (Open Virtuozzo) is an operating-system-level virtualization technology for Linux. It allows a physical server to run multiple isolated operating system instances, called containers, virtual private servers (VPSs), or virtual environments (VEs). OpenVZ is similar to Solaris Containers and LXC.

  9. x86 virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization

    x86 virtualization is the use of hardware-assisted virtualization capabilities on an x86/x86-64 CPU.. In the late 1990s x86 virtualization was achieved by complex software techniques, necessary to compensate for the processor's lack of hardware-assisted virtualization capabilities while attaining reasonable performance.
