Application Virtualization: Application virtualization helps a user to have


remote access to an application from a server. The server stores all personal
information and other characteristics of the application but can still run on a
local workstation through the internet. An example of this would be a user
who needs to run two different versions of the same software. Technologies
that use application virtualization are hosted applications and packaged
applications.
2. Network Virtualization: The ability to run multiple virtual networks with
each having a separate control and data plan. It co-exists together on top of
one physical network. It can be managed by individual parties that are
potentially confidential to each other. Network virtualization provides a facility
to create and provision virtual networks, logical switches, routers, firewalls,
load balancers, Virtual Private Networks (VPN) , and workload security within
days or even weeks.

3. Desktop Virtualization: Desktop virtualization allows the users’ OS to be


remotely stored on a server in the data center. It allows the user to access
their desktop virtually, from any location by a different machine. Users who
want specific operating systems other than Windows Server will need to
have a virtual desktop. The main benefits of desktop virtualization are user
mobility, portability, and easy management of software installation, updates,
and patches.

4. Storage Virtualization: Storage virtualization is an array of servers that


are managed by a virtual storage system. The servers aren’t aware of
exactly where their data is stored and instead function more like worker bees
in a hive. It makes managing storage from multiple sources be managed and
utilized as a single repository. storage virtualization software maintains
smooth operations, consistent performance, and a continuous suite of
advanced functions despite changes, breaks down, and differences in the
underlying equipment.

5. Server Virtualization: This is a kind of virtualization in which the masking


of server resources takes place. Here, the central server (physical server) is
divided into multiple different virtual servers by changing the identity number,
and processors. So, each system can operate its operating systems in an
isolated manner. Where each sub-server knows the identity of the central
server. It causes an increase in performance and reduces the operating cost
by the deployment of main server resources into a sub-server resource. It’s
beneficial in virtual migration, reducing energy consumption, reducing
infrastructural costs, etc.

6. Data Virtualization: This is the kind of virtualization in which the data is


collected from various sources and managed at a single place without
knowing more about the technical information like how data is collected,
stored & formatted then arranged that data logically so that its virtual view
can be accessed by its interested people and stakeholders, and users
through the various cloud services remotely. Many big giant companies are
providing their services like Oracle, IBM, At scale, Cdata, etc.
