Description

KVM, which stands for Kernel-based Virtual Machine, serves as a comprehensive virtualization solution for Linux systems operating on x86 hardware equipped with virtualization capabilities (such as Intel VT or AMD-V). It comprises a loadable kernel module, known as kvm.ko, that underpins the essential virtualization framework, along with a processor-specific module, either kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. By utilizing KVM, users can operate several virtual machines that run unaltered Linux or Windows operating systems. Each virtual machine is allocated its own set of virtualized hardware components, including a network interface card, storage, graphics adapter, and more. KVM is an open-source project, with its kernel component integrated into the mainline Linux kernel since version 2.6.20, while the userspace aspect has been incorporated into the mainline QEMU project starting from version 1.3. This integration enables widespread deployment and support for various virtualization applications and services.

Description

KubeVirt technology meets the demands of development teams that are transitioning to Kubernetes while still managing legacy Virtual Machine-based workloads that cannot be easily converted into containers. Essentially, it offers a cohesive development environment where developers are able to create, alter, and deploy applications that exist in both application containers and virtual machines within a shared ecosystem. The advantages of this approach are extensive and impactful. Teams relying on established virtual machine workloads gain the ability to swiftly containerize their applications, enhancing their operational efficiency. By integrating virtualized workloads directly into their development processes, teams have the flexibility to gradually decompose these workloads while continuing to utilize the remaining virtualized elements as needed. This innovative platform allows for the combination of existing virtualized workloads with newly developed containerized workloads. Furthermore, it facilitates the creation of new microservice applications in containers that can seamlessly interact with previously established virtualized applications, thereby fostering an integrated development experience.
