The virtualization here is to deal with limitations in Windows 10 and the video games that they want to run. And that didn't (and still doesn't) require any virtualization. That was very normal and you could build that today. That's three hundred keyboards and monitors (no mice, that's too new) connected physically to a single computer that everyone would use at once. The first machine that I was an admin on was over 300 users on a single machine like this. The idea of having one user per machine is actually far newer. I did not know that it was possible for MULTIPLE PHYSICAL MONITORS & K.Boards and MICE could connect and run concurrently with each VM. without touching the server but from another ALAN MILLER. I always assumed you could only connect to each VM via remote/vnc.

That means each kboard mice and monitor was connected to each individual VM. Basically all i knew was how to administer VM's through RDP/VNC and through one physically connected KVM. My experience with VM's in my last company was through RDCMan (Remote Desktop Connection Manager). Sorry maybe my post wasnt quite clear and i'm the Noob idiot :) If you look at Linus videos you'll see he also did a 7 in 1. Proxmox VE and VirtualBox can be primarily classified as 'Virtualization Platform' tools.Īccording to the StackShare community, VirtualBox has a broader approval, being mentioned in 724 company stacks & 979 developers stacks compared to Proxmox VE, which is listed in 8 company stacks and 4 developer stacks.To answer your other question you can run two or more individual machines using any hypervisor with the right configuration and spec but most people don't. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. It is a complete open-source platform for all-inclusive enterprise virtualization that tightly integrates KVM hypervisor and LXC containers, software-defined storage and networking functionality on a single platform, and easily manages high availability clusters and disaster recovery tools with the built-in web management interface VirtualBox: Run nearly any operating system on a single machine and to freely switch between OS instances running simultaneously.
