________________  abstracts the physical storage devices into a pool of storage resources that can be allocated to VMs as needed

• Hypervisor

• Virtual Machines

• Virtual Network

• Virtual Storage

Divides a physical server into multiple VMs, each running its own OS and applications. It improves server utilization and reduces hardware costs

• Server Virtualization

• Desktop Virtualization

• Network Virtualization

• Storage Virtualization

• Application Virtualization

1. Creates virtual desktops that users can access remotely. It centralizes desktop management and enhances security.
