Oracle VM

Virtualization is the process of abstracting computing resources such that multiple operating system and application images can share a single physical server, bringing significant cost-of-ownership and manageability benefits. Through its Oracle VM, Oracle offers scalable, low-cost server virtualization solutions for heterogeneous applications.
