How Virtualisation


Virtualization lets you transform hardware into software. Use software such as VMware ESX to transform or “virtualize” the hardware resources of an x86-based computer—including the CPU, RAM, hard disk and network controller—to create a fully functional virtual machine that can run its own operating system and applications just like a “real” computer.

Multiple virtual machines share hardware resources without interfering with each other so that you can safely run several operating systems and applications at the same time on a single computer.

Virtualisation

I feel i should concentrate more on virtualisation. This thing virtualisation is going to rule in the future. This month i specifically going to post more on virtualisation.

OpenSuse 11

During this month i have come out of my world of Red Hat.
I have accidentally(luckily) tried opensuse, waw. its amazing. Immediately after i have installed opensuse beside windowXp on all computers in my network. There are no issues(especially hardware). I think opensuse & ubuntu are moving towards desktop linux popularity. I wish to seee linux penetrating more and more into people's minds. I can confidently say if anybody tries opensuse or ubuntu they will brush asise all their fears about linux. In fact the OS management is as simple as windows.
