Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Virtualization allows multiple virtual machines to run on a single physical machine, which can significantly increase server utilization rates to 70% or higher. This means that businesses can make better use of their hardware resources and save on costs. Option A is incorrect as virtualization allows multiple operating systems to run on a single physical machine, not the other way around. Option B is incorrect as it refers to Moore's Law, which pertains to the number of transistors on a chip and not specifically related to virtualization. Option D is incorrect as smartphones do not typically use virtualization to run operating systems.
