Cloud Computing Architecture
A virtual machine (VM) is a software-based emulation of a physical computer that runs an operating system and applications just like a real machine. By using virtualization technologies, VMs allow multiple operating systems to run on a single physical server, providing efficient resource utilization and isolation of workloads. This capability plays a critical role in optimizing cloud computing environments and enhances flexibility in deploying applications.
