For simplicity, think of a virtual machine, VM, as a “computer made of software” that you can use to run any software you’d run on a physical computer. Like a physical machine, a virtual machine has its own operating system (Windows, Linux, etc.), storage, networking, configuration settings, and software, and it is fully isolated from other VMs running on that host.
Why use a virtual machine?
Virtualization consolidates many small workloads onto a single physical computer, which ensures greater efficiency and lowers IT expenses. Deploying a new virtual machine with an operating system and application(s) provides an easy way for IT administrators to deploy proofs-of-concept and DevTest environments before changing production environments.
Virtual machines may also provide simpler asset management by consolidating VMs onto fewer physical servers. Managing virtual machines may also save your company time by maintaining less hardware, provisioning resources faster, and reducing downtime. And they can also reduce the space needed to deploy servers—as a result, they also end up reducing energy consumption, which makes them a more eco-friendly solution as well.
Virtual machines can also be a cost-effective way to run legacy applications without having to migrate to a completely new operating system. As hardware ages or becomes obsolete, virtualization allows a user to have the best of both worlds: they can upgrade hardware but still retain access to older operating systems.
The best virtual machine is highly portable, meaning it can be moved between physical computers in a network, and even between on-premises and cloud environments. Running multiple virtual machines on the same host can optimize the use of system resources.
