Microsoft Hyper-V

Microsoft Hyper-V is a virtualization technology that allows you to create and manage virtual machines (VMs) on a physical computer. Essentially, it lets you run multiple operating systems on one machine, enabling different applications or environments to operate independently. For example, a single computer can host Windows and Linux systems simultaneously, each behaving like its own separate computer. This is useful for businesses to optimize hardware usage, test software in different environments, or run legacy applications without needing additional physical hardware. Hyper-V is often used in data centers and for cloud computing solutions.
