While most users are probably used to running one virtual machine at a time, Hyper-V can run multiple virtual machines in their respective isolated spaces. This has many benefits, such as allowing different users access to different systems on each virtual machine and preventing a crashing virtual machine from affecting others. Hyper-V also includes features like efficient, optimized use of hardware, backup and disaster recovery, remote connectivity, secure booting, live migration, and storage migration. Hyper-V can have many applications. For example, it can be incredibly useful if you’re a developer and need to test how software will behave in different environments. Many IT services also use Hyper-V to create private cloud environments or virtual desktop infrastructures.
