It is a device that synchronizes a group of sensors. It is software used to coordinate and prepare data for analysis. It is a device that filters and checks security credentials. It is used to create and manage multiple VM instances on a host machine.
How hypervisor and virtualization are connected?
How does it work? The servers would need to execute the hypervisor. The hypervisor, in turn, loads the client operating systems of the virtual machines. The hypervisor allocates the correct CPU resources, memory, bandwidth and disk storage space for each virtual machine.
What is Type 2 virtualization?
Type 2 hypervisors is that Type 1 runs on bare metal and Type 2 runs on top of an operating system. Each hypervisor type also has its own pros and cons and specific use cases. Virtualization works by abstracting physical hardware and devices from the applications running on that hardware.
What is hypervisor bare metal?

What is the role of a hypervisor?
The role of a hypervisor is also expanding. For example, storage hypervisors are used to virtualize all of the storage resources in the environment to create centralized storage pools that administrators can provision — without having to concern themselves with where the storage was physically located.
What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 hypervisor?
The main difference between Type 1 and Type 2 hypervisors is that Type 1 runs on bare metal and Type 2 runs on top of an OS. Each hypervisor type also has its own pros and cons and specific use cases. Virtualization works by abstracting physical hardware and devices from the applications running on that hardware.
