Virtualization, not Virtualisation....

In an upcoming session I (PsychiC) would like to share some thoughts about virtualization. What does it actually mean and what does it actually do ? There are many forms of virtualization ranging from applications to networking, each having unique capabilities and many integrate with eachother to create a virtual platform.

I will focus on the aspects we are able to use in the hackerspace, thus providing a base for participants to explore the possibilities of virtualization.

For now you won't need any hardware for this will be a paper talk only.

On 3th June 2011 I will start with a few basics around desktop/virtualization using VMware player/workstation/server. The basics should apply to other host-based virtualization software like virtualbox.
