Hypervisor Market Size by Component, Type, Application, End-User, Region
A hypervisor or VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor) is computer software that creates and runs virtual machines. A computer on which a hypervisor runs one or more VM (virtual machines) is called a host machine, and each virtual machine is called a guest machine. The hypervisor presents the guest OS (Operating Systems) with a virtual operating platform & manages the execution of the guest OS. With hardware resources, especially RAM, CPU power, storage (HDD), network inter-face cards (NICs) and other components, becoming cheaper, efficient access to those resources is crucial and is conducted by specialized software-hypervisors.
