Welcome, to the world of virtualization, a software technology that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way that people compute, regardless of whether they fall into the category of IT professional or Mac user. Virtualization can be described as the separation of an apparent function (or capability) from the physical means through which it is produced. Hardware virtualization technology enables a data center to pool its physical computing, storage and bandwidth resources and dole it out as virtual machines with just the right capacity for each application.
