Virtualization in Cloud
Computing
Virtualization is a powerful technology transforming cloud
computing, revolutionizing how we access and manage
resources. This presentation explores the concept,
technologies, benefits, and impact of virtualization on modern
cloud infrastructure.
Understanding Virtualization
Virtualization Virtual Machines
Virtualization is a technique that allows a single Virtual machines (VMs) are software-based
physical computer to run multiple operating representations of physical computers, each with its
systems and applications simultaneously. own virtualized hardware and resources.
Virtualization Technologies
Hypervisors Containers
Hypervisors are software Containers offer a lightweight

abstraction between the isolated environments,
physical hardware and the enabling efficient resource
virtual environment. utilization and portability.
Serverless Computing
Serverless computing allows developers to focus on code without
managing infrastructure, automatically scaling resources based
on demand, simplifying deployment and maintenance.

Cloud Computing
Virtualization is a cornerstone of cloud computing, enabling the delivery of on-demand
services like storage, computing, and networking.
Cloud Servers
Cloud servers are typically virtualized, allowing for rapid provisioning, scaling, and
flexible resource management.
Cloud Networking
Cloud networking leverages virtualization to create virtual networks, connecting virtual
machines and enabling secure and reliable communication.
Hypervisor and Virtual
Machines
1 Hypervisor
The hypervisor, also known as a virtual machine monitor,
acts as a bridge between the physical hardware and the
virtual machines.
3 Resource Allocation
The hypervisor allocates and manages resources, such as
CPU, memory, storage, and network bandwidth, to the
virtual machines.
Challenges and Future Trends
Security
Ensuring security of virtual machines and data in the cloud is critical, requiring robust

security measures and proactive monitoring.
Performance
2 Optimizing performance of virtualized environments requires careful resource
allocation and management, balancing resource utilization and service quality.
Scalability
3 Scaling virtualized infrastructure to meet fluctuating demands requires
efficient automation and orchestration tools.
Management
4 Managing complex virtualized environments requires advanced
tools for provisioning, monitoring, and troubleshooting virtual
machines.
