Server virtualization refers to computers or servers, called virtual machines or virtual servers, simulated using software. Each virtual server runs on its own partition on a physical server. Typically, many virtual servers can run on one physical server. They are isolated from one another and can be moved easily, even automatically, between physical servers.
