This document provides a summary of the history and development of virtualization technologies. It discusses:
- The differences between type 1 and type 2 hypervisors and examples of each.
- Key events in virtualization history from 1998 to 2006, including VMware's founding and Microsoft's acquisition of Connectix and release of Virtual PC.
- An overview of Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) and how it can reduce costs by dynamically streaming software as a centralized service.
- Integration features and benefits of Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (MED-V) for seamless virtual application delivery.

4. Type 1 (or native, bare metal) hypervisors run
directly on the host's hardware to control the
hardware and to monitor guest operating
systems. A guest operating system thus runs
on another level above the hypervisor.
Type 2 (or hosted) hypervisors Run within a
conventional operating system environment.
With the hypervisor layer as a distinct second
software level, guest operating systems run
at the third level above the hardware.
6. October 26, 1998, VMware filed for a patent on
their techniques, which is granted as U.S. Patent
6,397,242.
February 8, 1999, VMware introduced VMware
Virtual Platform for the Intel IA-32 architecture.
7. ◦ February 18, 2003, Microsoft acquired virtualization
technologies (Virtual PC and unreleased product
called "Virtual Server") from Connectix Corporation.
◦ Late 2003, EMC acquired VMware for $635 million.
◦ November 10, 2003 Microsoft releases Microsoft
Virtual PC, which is machine-level virtualization
technology, to ease the transition to Windows XP.
8. July 12, 2006 VMware releases VMware Server, a free
machine-level virtualization product for the server
market.
Microsoft Virtual PC 2006 is released as a free
program, also in July.
11. Dynamically streaming software as a centrally managed
service
Streams applications to users Readily accessible applications
Centralizes permissions Accelerate Windows deployment
Never installs applications Accelerate application recovery
Isolates applications Reduced application conflicts
Provide real-time metering Minimize app-to-app compatibility testing

Notas do Editor
It is truly amazing the cool things that you can do with Virtualization on Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V . Imagine what you could do if you had a huge datacenter to work with. This is our Quincy Washington Data Center. 470,000 square feet and up to 80,000 servers. Its an old style generation 1 datacenter.
This is San Antonio Texas. Quincy’s twin sister. Amazing datacenter. Still Generation 1.
What you’re looking at here is an aerial shot of our Chicago Data Center – just looks like a giant parking garage. Generation 3 (Gen 4 even newer. They don’t have roofs.)Those two orange towers are NOT for launching missles. They are for cooling. They’re water towers. 2 Mil gallons each. Enough to cool the data center for 4 minutes in case the power goes out, while the backup systems come online.The data center holds 350,000 servers.
Here are the parking spots for the trailers. Connection terminals here.And it’s just one little USB cable to plug it in for all power, cooling and data! (Just kidding)
This is how we stack the containers inside the data centers. Like Reeeeeeeely BIG Legos.
