  1. Yin Yunqiao yunqiao.yin@hp.com 2007-08-31 HP A Brief Introduction To Virtualization Technologies

  2. Virtualization • In computing, virtualization is a broad term that refers to the abstraction of computer resources. • Platform virtualization • Resource virtualization

  3. Platform Virtualization • Emulation or simulation • Native virtualization and full virtualization • Hardware enabled virtualization • Partial virtualization • Paravirtualization • Operating system-level virtualization • Application Virtualization

  4. Emulation or simulation • allowing an unmodified "guest" OS for a completely different CPU to be run. • Examples: • Bochs • PearPC • VirtualPC • QEMU(without acceleration)‏

  5. Native and Full Virtualization • the virtual machine simulates enough hardware to allow an unmodified "guest" OS (one designed for the same CPU) to be run in isolation. • Examples: • VirtualBox • Virtual PC • Vmware • QEMU • Win4Lin • XEN/Virtual Iron

  6. Hardware enabled virtualization • the virtual machine has its own hardware and allows a guest OS to be run in isolation. • Intel VT (IVT)‏ • AMD virtualization (AMD-V)‏ • Examples: • VMware Fusion • Parallels Desktop for Mac • Parallels Workstation

  7. Partial virtualization • the virtual machine simulates multiple instances of much (but not all) of an underlying hardware environment, particularly address spaces.

  8. Paravirtualization • the virtual machine does not necessarily simulate hardware, but instead (or in addition) offers a special API that can only be used by modifying the "guest" OS. • Terminologies • Hypervisor, hypercall • Enomalism • Examples: • XEN, KVM, Win4Lin 9x

  9. Operating system-level virtualization • virtualizing a physical server at the operating system level, enabling multiple isolated and secure virtualized servers to run on a single physical server. • Examples: • Parallels Workstation • Linux-VServer, Virtuozzo • OpenVZ, Solaris Containers • FreeBSD Jails • Chroot ?

  10. Application Virtualization • typically for the purpose allowing application binaries to be portably run on many different computer architectures and operating systems. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Application_Virtual_Machines • Examples: • .NET CLR • JVM • Script Languages:Python,Ruby,Javascript...

  11. Resource Virtualization • RAID • SAN • Channel bondings • VPN/NAT • Multiprocessor and multi-core • Cluster and Grid computing • Partitioning

  12. Virtualization Under Linux(1)‏ • UML (User Mode Linux) • http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/ • KVM (Kernal-based Virtual Machine)‏ • From Linux-2.6.20 • http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki • XEN • http://xen.xensource.com/

  13. Virtualization Under Linux(2)‏ • QEMU • http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/ • QEMU Accelerators • KQEMU • QVM86 • VirtualBox (released in January 2007)‏ • KVM with QEMU

  14. Virtualization Under Linux(3)‏ • Bochs (GPLed, very slow)‏ • A portable x86 and AMD64 PCs emulator mostly written in C++ and distributed as free software under GPL. • http://bochs.sourceforge.net/ • VirtualBox(commercial&open source, fast)‏ • http://www.virtualbox.org/ • VMWare (Workstation,Server,Player)‏

  15. Virtualization Under Linux(4)‏ • SWSOFT Virtualizations • http://www.swsoft.com • http://www.parallels.com/ • http://openvz.org/ • Linux-VServer • http://linux-vserver.org/ • Compare with: • FreeBSD Jail • Solaris Containers (Zones)‏

  16. Linux Virtualization in Windows(1) • VMWare • Virtual PC • VirtualBox • Bochs • QEMU

  17. Linux Virtualization in Windows(2) • CoLinux Cooperative Linuxhttp://www.colinux.org/ • Topologilinuxhttp://www.topologilinux.com

  18. Linux Virtualization in Windows(3) • MinGW Minimalist GNU for Windows • Cygwin • GNUWIN32 • GNUWINII • UnxUtils • UWIN • SFUMicrosoft Windows Services for UNIX,aka Interix‏

  19. Comparison of virtual machines • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_virtual_machines
