    The key takeaways from the presentation are that virtualization allows for more efficient use of hardware resources, server consolidation, increased flexibility, and cost savings. Virtualization abstracts the hardware to run multiple virtual machines on a single physical server.

    The benefits of virtualization discussed include simplified administration, hardware independence/portability, increased hardware utilization through server consolidation, decreased provisioning times, improved security, and use for software development, testing, and disaster recovery.

    Server consolidation in virtualization refers to eliminating server sprawl by deploying multiple virtual servers on a single physical server to better utilize hardware resources and reduce costs associated with maintaining separate physical servers.

    What is Virtualization
    Virtualization abstracts the underlying physical structure of various
    technologies. Virtualization, in computing, is the creation of a virtual
    (rather than actual) version of something, such as a hardware
    platform, operating system, a storage device or network
    resources[1]
    Server virtualization[2]
    Creates multiple isolated environments
    Allows multiple OSs and workloads to run on the same physical
    hardware
    Solves the problem of tight coupling between OSs and hardware

    The Virtual Server Concept

    Virtual Machines
    Virtual machines provide:
    Hardware independence
    Guest VM sees the same
    hardware regardless of the host
    hardware
    Isolation VMs operating
    system is isolated from the host
    operating system
    Encapsulation Entire VM
    encapsulated into a single file

    Anil Desai IEEE Computer Society, Austin Chapter April 18th, 2007

    Virtualization Key Solutions / Use Cases


    Server Consolidation and Containment Eliminate server
    sprawl by deploying systems into virtual machines
    Infrastructure Provisioning Reduce the time for provisioning
    new infrastructure to minutes with sophisticated automation
    capabilities.
    Business Continuity Reduce the cost and complexity of
    business continuity by encapsulating entire systems files that can
    be replicated and restored onto any target server
    Test and Development Rapidly provision and re-provision test
    and development servers; store libraries of pre-configured test
    machines
    Enterprise Desktop Secure unmanaged PCs. Alternatively,
    provide standardized enterprise desktop environments hosted on
    servers.
    Legacy Application Re-hosting Migrate legacy operating
    systems and software applications to virtual machines running on
    new hardware for better reliability

    The Disadvantages of Virtualization


    Virtualization may not work well for:
    Resource-intensive applications
    VMs may have RAM/CPU/SMP limitations
    Performance testing
    Hardware compatibility testing
    Specific hardware requirements
    Custom hardware devices
    Some hardware architectures or features are impossible to virtualize
    Certain registers or state not exposed
    Unusual devices and device control
    Clocks, time, and real-time behavior

    22

    System Virtualization - Present State


    Data center and desktop computing successfully use virtualization to
    Better utilize computing capacity
    Balance computing load
    Manage complexity and parallelism
    Improve security by isolation
    Mobile and embedded computing currently lag behind since
    Most hypervisors only support the x86 platform
    Most hypervisors require large memories
    Most hypervisors have poor real-time support
    Most hypervisors are inefficient with microkernel OSs
    Full-virtualization is not available. Operating system source code
    needs to be available and must be modified
    Suitable open source-code hypervisors are not available

    23

    Cloud Computing Takes Virtualization to the Next


    Step

    You dont have to own the hardware & the


    staff
    You rent VMs & services as needed from a
    ITaaS provider (IT as a Service)
    There are multiple public cloud providers
    e.g. Amazon EC2 and many others
    (Verizon, iland, Rackspace, Savvis , HP, IBM)
    The Cloud will provide IT similar to public utilities
    providing electricity, gas, and water
