Course 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.

This course include the following:
- Basic concepts of VMs, Hosts, and Hypervisors
- Type-1 and Type-2 Hypervisors
