Course Description

This 1-Day Virtualization training course is intended for those who want a quick but not very technical overview of what the world of virtualization is about.  Virtualization is the current buzz in computer technology and covers a wide range of technical disciplines; including CPU, platform, memory, storage, application, security, network, and I/O virtualization - these being the most popular as discussed in marketing and technical journals.  This course covers all these Virtualization technologies from a cloud level view and puts them in perspective relative to IT, server, and desktop concerns and requirements.

 

 
You Will Learn:
  • The various types of virtualization and how they basically work
  • Virtualization terminology
  • How the various types of virtualization relate to each other
  • The places virtualization technologies are used
