  3. Bare-metal server - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bare-metal_server

    Some bare-metal cloud servers may run a hypervisor or containers, e.g., to simplify maintenance or provide additional layers of isolation. [ 4 ] Note that the distinction between these services and the traditional dedicated server offerings is the user's ability to provision infrastructures composed out of multiple servers, a complex network ...

  4. Client hypervisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client_Hypervisor

    Type 1 (Bare metal): this type of client hypervisor runs directly on the host machine's hardware and serves as the host operating system, providing hardware access to guests via its own drivers. Also, it create a layer above the layer for allocate system resources to all installed virtual machines. [1]

  5. Hypervisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervisor

    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 .

    Enterprise-class router, firewall, VPN, intrusion protection and more delivered as a complete network operating system that runs on x86 hardware or in XenServer, VMware or Hyper-V to provide vFirewall, vRouter network virtualization functionality.

  7. Single-root input/output virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../output_virtualization

    The virtual or physical functions available to the hypervisor or guest operating system depend on the PCIe device. [3] The SR-IOV allows different virtual machines (VMs) in a virtual environment to share a single PCI Express hardware interface. In contrast, MR-IOV allows I/O PCI Express to share resources among different VMs on different ...

  8. XtratuM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XtratuM

    The result of this is XtratuM 2.0 which is type 1 hypervisor that uses para-virtualization. The para-virtualized operations are as close to the hardware as possible. Therefore, porting an operating system that already works on the native system is a simple task: replace some parts of the operating system HAL with the corresponding hypercalls.

  9. Hyper-converged infrastructure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-converged_infrastructure

    [6] [7] All physical data-center resources reside on a single administrative platform for both hardware and software layers. [8] Consolidation of all functional elements at the hypervisor level, together with federated identity management, was promoted to improve data-center inefficiencies and reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) for data ...
