What is VirtualBox?

VirtualBox is a virtualization software developed by Oracle Corporation. It's primarily used to run multiple operating systems on the same PC. A virtual machine (VM) is an isolated operating system environment that runs separately from the host operating system, allowing it to be used for different purposes. The VM's operating system, applications and data all run within the VM and are not visible to the host operating system, or any other VMs. You can choose from Windows, Linux or *BSD as the guest OS. As a result, each guest VM has its own virtualized hardware including CPU, memory, hard drive and network interface card (NIC). The entire software stack for a given OS is included in a single file which has extension .vdi and can be easily distributed or stored for future use

VirtualBox is a free and open source virtualization software developed by Oracle Corporation. VirtualBox was first released in February 2007, with its latest stable release being version 5.2.4 that was released on September 8, 2019. VirtualBox is a cross-platform application that runs on Windows, Mac, Linux and Solaris operating systems (OS). The main features of the VirtualBox are:

  • Multi-platform: it supports all major operating systems such as Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP SP3 32-bit & 64-bit; Linux Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 19.04 LTS / 20; Debian 9/10; Fedora 29/28; CentOS 7 (x86_64) и macOS High Sierra 10.14 Mojave on Intel processors (32 bit). For other processors see the downloads page of this website where you can find packages for different platforms like OpenSolaris 2008 build 124 or XenServer 6.* Cross-Platform Support - It supports different versions of operating systems like Windows XP through Windows 7***END OF SECTION

It's primarily used to run multiple operating systems on the same PC.

VirtualBox is a x86 virtualization product developed by Oracle. It allows you to run multiple operating systems and software environments on the same computer at the same time, much like how you can use multiple desktops on a single operating system. This can be useful if you want to run an old application that doesn't work on newer versions of Windows or macOS, or if you want to test out new operating systems before installing them onto your hard drive. There are other ways to do this kind of thing too, but VirtualBox is one of the best options because it's free, open-source software that supports many different OSes and comes with full documentation plus an active community forum where users help each other out with problems they're having while using VirtualBox (or just general questions about using one).

A virtual machine (VM) is an isolated operating system environment that runs separately from the host operating system, allowing it to be used for different purposes. Virtual machines can be used for testing, development, and deployment of software, as well as running multiple operating systems on the same physical machine.

VirtualBox is a popular virtualization software package with many advanced features. It allows users to run multiple operating systems at once in isolated environments called VMs (virtual machines). This is useful if you want to test out a new version of an OS or diagnostic application without wiping your main hard drive clean. You can also run VMs in parallel with other applications on your computer's CPU resources without experiencing performance degradation

The VM's operating system, applications and data all run within the VM and are not visible to the host operating system, or any other VMs.

A virtual machine (VM) is a software implementation of a computer system. The software constructs an emulation of the underlying hardware, including CPU, memory, hard drive and NIC. This allows you to run multiple operating systems on the same physical computer by isolating each OS in its own isolated environment called a VM.

The hardware included in this virtualized environment is defined by you (the user) and can be configured as needed for each application or system that you install inside of it. For example, if your host operating system has two CPUs your guest OS will have access to 2 CPUs as well. If it doesn't then no problem! You can add another CPU to get them both up and running!

You can choose from Windows, Linux or *BSD as the guest OS.

VirtualBox is a virtualization platform that allows you to run multiple operating systems on your computer. You can choose from Windows, Linux or *BSD as the guest OS.

VirtualBox can be used with a number of different virtualization platforms, including:

  • Oracle VM VirtualBox

  • VMware Workstation Player (formerly VMware GSX Server)

  • VMware Fusion (formerly called "Junglebook")

As a result, each guest VM has its own virtualized hardware including CPU, memory, hard drive and network interface card (NIC).

The virtualization software creates a virtual machine that has its own virtualized hardware, which includes the following:

  • CPU: Each guest VM is allocated a certain number of processing units, or CPUs. The guest VM can use these to execute processes and run applications.

  • Memory: A guest VM also gets its own memory allocation, which is independent from other VMs running on the same physical computer. This means you can run multiple instances of your database server without worrying about interference from other running processes.

  • Hard drive: Guest VMs have their own hard drives where they store files and data just like physical machines do---however, since all this information isn't stored on physical disk drives but rather in RAM (random access memory), it doesn't actually take up space on your hard drive! Even better? If you want to remove a guest OS from VirtualBox without destroying any data contained within it (or if something happens unexpectedly), you can simply delete all traces by deleting them from within their respective Guest Additions menu items under Settings > Storage > Controller 0 > Remove All Files In Virtual Disk Image File(s).

The entire software stack for a given OS is included in a single file. These files have extension .vdi and can be easily distributed or stored for future use.

You can create, run, and shut down a virtual machine by running the following command:

  • VBoxManage startvm

  • VBoxManage controlvm acpipowerbutton ACPI 1 0 (if you want to turn off the PC)

  • VBoxManage controlvm poweroff (if you want to shutdown your PC)

VirtualBox is compatible with most existing PC hardware making it possible to install multiple VMs on even a low-end PC -- you just need enough memory to run all of them simultaneously.

  • It's also possible to make your virtual machines more portable, so that they can run on any computer.

Virtualization software like VirtualBox allows you to create multiple virtual machines that run on your physical PC at the same time

VirtualBox is a free and open source virtualization software, which allows you to create multiple virtual machines that run on your physical PC at the same time.

These guest operating systems can be used for testing, sandboxing, or running multiple operating systems on one computer. VirtualBox also has a built-in display server (VirtualBox VGA) which allows you to run Internal/EFI mode guests as well as full Windows Aero desktop with 3D rendering.

VirtualBox is an open source virtualization software that allows users to run multiple operating systems on one physical PC. It's a great way to test out different operating systems, as well as use older ones without having to boot into them every time.
