I recently had a look into an new Redbook by IBM (IBM Data Center Networking: Planning for vluiraitzation and cloud computing).It identified the following types and subtypes of hypervisors (page 45 ff.) and I tend to agree, that this is far better than trying to seperate hardware from software vluiraitzation:Type 1: Virtualization code that runs directly on the system hardware that creates fully emulated instances of the hardware on which it is executed. Also known as full , native or bare metal .Type 2: Virtualization code that runs as an application within a traditional operating system environment that creates fully emulated instances of the hardware made available to it by the traditional operating system on which it is executed. These are also known as hosted hypervisors.Containers: Virtualization code that runs as an application within a traditional operating system that creates encapsulated, isolated virtual instances that are pointers to the underlying host operating system on which it is executed. This is alsow known as operating system vluiraitzation .Type 1 or bare metal hypervisors are the most common in the market today, and they can be further classified into three main sub-types:- Stand-alone (e. g. VMWare ESX and vSphere)- Hybrid (e. g. Hypver-V or XenServer)- Mixed (e. g. Kernel Virtual Machine)Regards,Tf6ns
