Hi.
What is the difference between virtualization and Emulation.
Thanks
Mohammad
The difference between Virtualization and Emulation are:
S.NO |
VIRTUALIZATION |
EMULATION |
1 |
In this, parts of the computer hardware are simulated |
In this, the entire hardware is simulated in software. |
2 |
Virtualization is faster when compared to emulation |
Emulation is slower when compared to Virtualization |
3 |
In virtualization, a virtual machine can run directly on the underlying hardware |
In this, the properties of one system are taken and tried to reproduce with a different type of system. |
4 |
So, a guest OS can run without any modification. In this, most of the operations will run on the real hardware for efficiency purposes. |
In emulation, a hardware component is replaced by a software-based construct. |
5 |
Here, the computing resources are utilized in an efficient manner that is independent of the physical location or layout |
In an emulated server, we can run a complete virtual machine |
6 |
A single physical system can be divided into many independent environments called virtual machines. |
Here, we can run programs that are designed for an entirely different architecture on an x86 PC. |
