Cloud vs virtualisation:

understanding the powerhouse duo

Virtualisation:

Virtualisation is the process of creating multiple virtual machines (VMs) from a single physical server. Each VM operates independently, with its own operating system, applications, and data, maximising resources and efficiency.

Key features of virtualisation include:

  • Consolidation
  • Utilisation
  • Disaster recovery
  • Testing and development

Cloud Computing: On-Demand Resources in the Sky

Cloud computing provides users with on-demand access to a shared pool of computing resources, such as servers, storage, databases, networking, and software.

Key benefits of cloud computing include:

  • Scalability
  • Automatic updates and security
  • Flexibility
  • Cost-effectiveness
  • Access to the newest applications
