Virtual Machine Manager

A Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) is software that allows a single physical computer to run multiple virtual computers, called virtual machines (VMs). It manages the allocation of hardware resources like CPU, memory, and storage to each VM, enabling them to operate independently. Think of it as a conductor orchestrating multiple digital "servers" within one physical server, making it easier to manage, isolate, and optimize software environments without needing separate physical machines. VMMs are essential in data centers, cloud services, and for testing or development purposes.
