Paper Introduction
With the inherent capabilities of computers, virtualization has become a major catch phrase being bandied about in the media today. Usually, the media mistakenly equates virtual machine technology, technology that can encapsulate all of the software that runs on a physical system and allows that capsule to run along side of others on a single system, with virtualization itself. It is often presented as something new and different rather than a well-established group of technologies with a long track record of success in data centers around the world. Suppliers, such as Intel, have been involved with all levels of virtualization technology for a very long time.
