The document provides information about an IT professional who manages Insan Solutions and provides various IT services including software development, virtualization using KVM, and IT support. It then discusses KVM virtualization in more detail, explaining that KVM allows using the Linux kernel as a hypervisor for virtual machines, providing benefits like leveraging the Linux scheduler and memory management, free cost, and stable I/O performance. The document concludes with a demonstration of KVM virtualization.

4. Recap on Virtualization

5. What is Virtualization?

6. Virtualization with KVM

7. What is KVM?
 KVM stands for Kernel-Based Virtual Machine.
 Virtualization Infrastructure for the Linux Kernel.
 Supports Native Virtualization (Intel VT / AMD V)
 Developed by Qumranet
 Qumranet bought by Red Hat in 2008.
 Red Hat's Enterprise Virtualization Platform

8. Why KVM?

9. Common Hypervisor Model

10. Issues
 Hardware becoming increasingly complex
 Scheduling Operations account for;
◦ Multiple Threads on Core
◦ Multiple Core on Sockets
◦ Multiple Sockets on System
 Memory Management support Non-Uniform
Memory Access (NUMA)
 Huge investment required for additional
capabilities

11. Proposed Alternative
 A mature scheduler & memory management
system already exist – Linux Kernel
 Add Virtualization Capabilities to the Linux Kernel
 Bring benefits of the Linux Kernel to the
Virtualization environment
 Don't reinvent the wheel!

12. Linux as a Hypervisor

13. Benefits of using KVM
 Free $$$
 Stable and Fast I/O Performance
 Less complicated to set up
 Variety of Open Source Management Tools
Available
 Supports MS Windows Server Editions
 Available to all major Linux Distros
