Its initial release was available in 2007, and later the manufacturing company was purchased by Oracle corporation. VirtualBox is a virtualization tool being used to create virtual machines that allow users to operate multiple Operating Systems on a single computing device. In this detailed guide, we will explain the difference between two competing tools VirtualBox and VMware: VirtualBox
These tools also allow the users to configure all these settings for the virtual machines. of CPU cores can be set, and a specific memory from your RAM can be allocated for the Virtual machine. For instance, users can specify the amount of disk space to be dedicated to the virtual machine no. Every tool has its advantages and disadvantages: whenever a virtual machine is created inside a tool, the virtual machine can be configured as per the requirements. There are various tools that are available such as VirtualBox, VMware, Hyper-V, Horizon 7, etc. The virtual desktop providing tools are used to install another operating system on your device. Just my 2c though - of course other people will have different reasons for choosing their system.Desktop virtualization is a computing phenomenon that allows you to use various operating systems on one physical machine. For purely local use (i.e VM on a laptop I'd still go for VMware or vbox). I know it works on laptops but I think HYPER-V would be better with the VM's stored on a remote server / file system rather than the machine you are actually using. HYPER-V IMO works best if the VM is not on the same physical host. One other thing I did notice on HYPER-V is that NETWORK SHARING of devices is more problematic - in the RDP I think you have to enable local devices as well as sound if you want it. Home users can download a FREE copy which works just fine. You might find though using HYPER-V that dynamically adding and removing devices on the VM (USB cameras, HDD's etc) is a bit more fiddly and in some cases using the RDP system (Remote desktop) for connection can sometimes seem slowish.Īll these things are "fixable" I agree in HYPER-V but for people relatively new to VM's I wouldn't suggest they start with HYPER-V.Īnother issue is that if you have BOTH LINUX and WINDOWS HOSTS you can run the SAME VM (whether VMware or VBOX) on BOTH HOSTS without change / conversion etc.īTW you don't have to pay 65 USD for VMware player - that's for the commercial use. Using Linux though you can use an equivalent (XEN or my preference - especially on Red hat based systems KVM) which also work pretty well.
It works on Linux !!!! (Sorry had to say that one). downloading youtube videos locally etc).Kari Such as software, music, videos and other intellectual property violations (e.g. 4) No piracy or discussion of piracy allowed at all.
