Abstract

Virtualization technology has emerged out as a cornerstone of the IT industries as it has transformed the way the IT infrastructure is deployed in the industries now a days. As virtualization provides a bundle of eye catching features such as flexibility, reduced downtime, cost effectiveness, scalability etc. therefore, it has become the driving force for leveraging IT industries. Hence, it has now become a primary need for an organization to investigate each and every aspect of virtualization before adopting it. This paper discusses the basic virtualization, types of virtualization, virtualization service provides, security issues, comparison among virtualization tools and the upcoming virtualizations trends.
