2. Implementation of Virtualization in Cloud Computing to Learn Virtualization Basics,
Benefits of Virtualization in Cloud using Open Source Operating System

AIM:
The objective of this lab experiment is to gain hands-on experience in implementing
virtualization in cloud computing using an open-source operating system. Participants will
learn the basics of virtualization, understand the benefits of virtualization in the cloud, and
work with relevant tools to create virtual machines.

Experiment Steps:

Step 1: What is Virtualization Software

Virtualization is technology that you can use to create virtual representations of servers,
storage, networks, and other physical machines. Virtual software mimics the functions of
physical hardware to run multiple virtual machines simultaneously on a single physical
machine.
The tool used for virtualization is virtualization software e.g VirtualBox.

Step 2: Explore about Virtual Machine

a computer system created using software on one physical computer in order to emulate the
functionality of another separate physical computer.

Step 3: Open Source Operating System

The term "open source" refers to computer software or applications where the owners or
copyright holders enable the users or third parties to use, see, and edit the product's source
code. The source code of an open-source OS is publicly visible and editable.
Some basic examples of the open-source operating systems are Linux, Open Solaris, Free
RTOS, Open BDS, Free BSD, Minix, etc.

Step 4: Virtualization Features

 ● Emulation
Guest programs run within a controlled virtualization layer, allowing the emulation of
diverse environments. This enables the execution of guest programs with specific
characteristics not present in the physical host.

● Sharing
Virtualization enables the creation of separate computing environments within the
same host, reducing the number of active servers and limiting power consumption.

● Aggregation
Virtualization allows the grouping of separate hosts, presented to guests as a single
virtual host. Cluster management software facilitates this, utilizing the resources of
multiple machines as a unified entity.

● Isolation
Virtualization provides guests with a separate environment, interacting through an
abstraction layer. The virtual machine filters and prevents harmful operations,
ensuring secure execution.

Step 5: Implement Virtualization in Cloud

1. Instruction Set Architecture Level (ISA):

ISA virtualization can work through ISA emulation. This is used to run many legacy
codes written for a different hardware configuration. These codes run on any virtual
machine using the ISA. With this, a binary code that originally needed some
additional layers to run is now capable of running on the x86 machines. It can also be
tweaked to run on the x64 machine. With ISA, it is possible to make the virtual
machine hardware agnostic.

2. Hardware Abstraction Level (HAL)

 True to its name HAL lets the virtualization perform at the level of the hardware. This
makes use of a hypervisor which is used for functioning. The virtual machine is
formed at this level, which manages the hardware using the virtualization process. It
allows the virtualization of each of the hardware components, which could be the
input-output device, the memory, the processor, etc.
3. Operating System Level
At the level of the operating system, the virtualization model is capable of creating a
layer that is abstract between the operating system and the application. This is an
isolated container on the operating system and the physical server, which uses the
software and hardware. Each of these then functions in the form of a server.

4. Library Level
The operating system is cumbersome, and this is when the applications use the API
from the libraries at a user level. These APIs are documented well, and this is why
the library virtualization level is preferred in these scenarios. API hooks make it
possible as it controls the link of communication from the application to the system.

5. Application Level
The application-level virtualization is used when there is a desire to virtualize only
one application and is the last of the implementation levels of virtualization in Cloud
Computing. One does not need to virtualize the entire environment of the platform.

Step 6: Benefits of Virtualization in Cloud

● Security:
During the process of virtualization security is one of the important concerns. The
security can be provided with the help of firewalls, which will help to prevent
unauthorised access and will keep the data confidential.
Moreover, with the help of firewalls and security, the data can protect from harmful
viruses, malware and other cyber threats. Encryption process also takes place with
protocols which will protect the data from other threads.
So, the customer can virtualize all the data stores and can create a backup on a
server in which the data can store.
● Flexible operations
With the help of a virtual network, the work of its professionals is becoming more
efficient and agile. The network switch implemented today is very easy to use,
flexible and saves time.
With the help of virtualization in Cloud Computing, technical problems can be solved
in physical systems. It eliminates the problem of recovering the data from crashed or
corrupted devices and hence saves time.
● Economical
Virtualization in Cloud Computing, save the cost for a physical system such as
hardware and servers. It stores all the data in the virtual server, which is quite
economical.
It reduces the wastage, decreases the electricity bills along with the maintenance
cost. Due to this, the business can run multiple operating systems and apps on a
particular server.
● Eliminates the risk of system failure
 While performing some task there are chances that the system might crash down at
the wrong time. This failure can cause damage to the company but the virtualizations
help you to perform the same task on multiple devices at the same time.
The data can be stored in the cloud it can retrieve anytime and with the help of any
device. Moreover, there are two working servers side by side which makes the data
accessible every time. Even if a server crashes with the help of the second server the
customer can access the data.
● Flexible transfer of data
The data can transfer to the virtual server and be retrieved anytime. The customers
or cloud providers don’t have to waste time finding hard drives to find data. With the
help of virtualization, it will be very easy to locate the required data and transfer them
to the allotted authorities.

Conclusion:
This lab experiment provides hands-on experience in implementing virtualization in cloud
computing using an open-source operating system. Participants gain practical insights into
the basics of virtualization, understand the benefits of virtualization in the cloud, and learn to
work with relevant tools to create and manage virtual machines.
