Virtualization software

This is a set category. It should only contain pages that are Virtualization software or lists of Virtualization software, as well as subcategories containing those things (themselves set categories). Topics about Virtualization software in general should be placed in relevant topic categories.

Virtualization software allows a single host computer to create and run one or more virtual environments.

Virtualization software is most often used to emulate a complete computer system in order to allow a guest operating system to be run, for example allowing Linux to run as a guest on top of a PC that is natively running a Microsoft Windows operating system (or the inverse, running Windows as a guest on Linux).

Storage virtualization refers to the process of abstracting logical storage from physical storage.
