What you will learn

Understand what VMs, Hosts, and Hypervisors are.

Learn how the resources of a host are shared by multiple VMs.

Learn how to convert a physical server to a virtual machine.

Description

Are you brand new to virtualization? Have you found that many of the training resources out there use complex technical jargon that make it difficult to understand the basic concepts behind virtualization? If you need to learn virtualization quickly and clearly, this is the course for you.

I have taught thousands of hours of live training directly for VMware. Most lectures in this course are 5 - 10 minutes long. This course gives you an understanding of general virtualization concepts. You'll learn how to convert a physical server to a VM. You'll see how the hypervisor provides access to CPU, memory, and storage resources.

If you need to learn VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware Workstation, AWS EC2, or any other virtualization technology, this course is the ideal starting point.

This course include the following:

  • Basic concepts of VMs, Hosts, and Hypervisors

  • Type-1 and Type-2 Hypervisors

  • Understand the files that make up a VM and what the Live State of a VM means

  • Learn how CPU, Memory, Network, and Storage resources are provided to VMs

  • Understand mobility, efficiency, availability, and other benefits of running VMs

  • Create VMs on your computer using VMware Workstation Player

  • Sign up for the AWS Free Tier and easily create a VM in the Cloud

Yes. However, It didn't show an example of an instance terminating. He mentioned that they would get into that.

So far my experience has been great! I love that I'm able to study and learn a new skill at my own pace during times that work for me and the Instructors are great! I would highly recommend UDEMEY to any one looking to learn and grow.
