Скачать или смотреть Episode 102 — Virtualization Types — Hypervisors Type 1 and Type 2

This episode examines the two main hypervisor types used in virtualization. Type 1 hypervisors, or bare-metal hypervisors, run directly on host hardware and provide superior performance and resource efficiency. Type 2 hypervisors run on top of a host operating system, offering greater flexibility but with additional overhead. We detail the operational differences, benefits, and use cases for each, including compatibility considerations for cloud and hybrid deployments.


We also explain how hypervisor selection affects management tools, scalability, and integration with containerized workloads. For the Cloud+ exam, understanding when to choose Type 1 or Type 2 based on operational requirements is critical.
