Virtualization - Parts I and II : The Big Picture
Every good session starts with a sample. In part one of this series about virtualization, Michael Fischer builds a virtual machine from scratch. Based on this example Michael covers the basics of virtualization:
. What’s the difference between virtualization and emulation
. What’s the difference between a virtualization layer and hyper visor
. How do virtual disks and virtual networks work?

And he answers probably the most important question: What do I need this for?

Part II is dedicated to real world scenarios for developers:
. Converting existing physical machines into virtual machines
. Building test machines for developers and QA staff

The session will conclude by building a complete team of virtual machines which emulate a high availability SQL database cluster.

Level: Beginner.

Requirements: None.
