Virtualization

What is virtualization?
• Virtualization is technology that you can use to create virtual
representations of servers, storage, networks, and other physical
machines.
• Virtual software mimics the functions of physical hardware to run
multiple virtual machines simultaneously on a single physical
machine.
• It also powers cloud computing services that help organizations
manage infrastructure more efficiently.
Why is virtualization important?
• Consider a company that needs servers for three functions:
• Store business email securely
• Run a customer-facing application
• Run internal business applications
• Each of these functions has different configuration requirements:
• The email application requires more storage capacity and a Windows
operating system.
• The customer-facing application requires a Linux operating system and high
processing power to handle large volumes of website traffic.
• The internal business application requires iOS and more internal memory
(RAM).

Linux commands
• ls  show list of all directories
• pwd  print current working directory
• mkdir ‘name’make directory
• cd ‘name’  change current working directory
• When you want to output the contents of a file, or print anything to the
terminal output, we make use of the cat or echo commands.
• the cat command when used on our “New-File”, prints the contents of the
file. At the same time, when we use echo command, it simply prints
whatever follows after the command.
• The less command is used when the output printed by any command
is larger than the screen space and needs scrolling. The less command
allows use to break down the output and scroll through it with the
use of the enter or space keys.
• The uname and whoami commands allow you to know some basic
information which comes really handy when you work on multiple systems.
In general, if you’re working with a single computer, you won’t really need it
as often as someone who is a network administrator.
The tar, zip, and unzip commands
• The tar command in Linux is used to create and extract archived files
in Linux. We can extract multiple different archive files using the tar
command.
• To create an archive, we use the -c parameter and to extract an
archive, we use the -x parameter. Let’s see it working.
