Rapid Virtualization Indexing (RVI), known as Nested Page Tables (NPT) during its development, is an AMD second generation hardware-assisted virtualization technology for the processor memory management unit (MMU). [1] [2] RVI was introduced in the third generation of Opteron processors, code name Barcelona. [3]
Hyper-V in Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10 1607 adds [55] Nested virtualization [56] (Intel processors only, both the host and guest instances of Hyper-V must be Windows Server 2016 or Windows 10 or later) Discrete Device Assignment (DDA), allowing direct pass-through of compatible PCI Express devices to guest Virtual Machines [57]
Nested virtualization becomes more necessary as widespread operating systems gain built-in hypervisor functionality, which in a virtualized environment can be used only if the surrounding hypervisor supports nested virtualization; for example, Windows 7 is capable of running Windows XP applications inside a built-in virtual machine.
An OpenVZ administrator can enable container access to various real devices, such as disk drives, USB ports, [6] PCI devices [7] or physical network cards. [ 8 ] /dev/loopN is often restricted in deployments (as loop devices use kernel threads which might be a security issue), which restricts the ability to mount disk images.

A major field of application for SR-IOV is within high-performance computing (HPC). The use of high-performance InfiniBand networking cards is growing within the HPC sector, and there is early research into the use of SR-IOV to allow for the use of InfiniBand within virtual machines such as Xen.
VMware ThinApp (formerly Thinstall) is an application virtualization and portable application creator suite by VMware that can package conventional Windows applications [3] into portable applications capable of running on another operating system. According to VMware, the product has a success rate of about 90–95% in packaging applications.
