Cloud computing is the practice of using remote servers on the Internet as the means of storing, processing and managing the data hosted by the Internet services rather using these services through your own personal computer or local services. This service can be used without having to take responsibility for the back-end maintenance. Cloud computing is a modern technique of using internet services which provides a technology of internet usage over a large area, strengthening the security of the area or institution, with a very minimal cost.<\/p>\n

VMware is virtualization and cloud computing software which was created in 1998. VMware is basically the products which provide virtualization, security management, networking, and storage software. VMware is compatible with almost all major operating software such as Microsoft Windows, Linux or Mac OS X. There are different types of VMware software which serves different purposes, some of which are explained below:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. VMware fusion:<\/strong> This software allows the virtualization between different software like Mac and Microsoft Windows. This software actually allows the user to share and work on the same data on both the operating software. This function can be used with the help of Unity mode, which helps the user to access Microsoft Windows on the Mac.<\/li>\n
  2. VMware NSX:<\/strong> This is networking and security software which allows the user to develop and configure virtual networks and switch the networks through the software rather than the hardware.<\/li>\n
  3. VMware Workstation:<\/strong> This application of VMware software let the user view or operates multiple copies of same or different operating systems on a single computer.<\/li>\n
  4. VMware Player:<\/strong> This application is an unpaid product for the personal use of an individual, who do not buy VMware products.<\/li>\n
  5. vRealize Suite:<\/strong> This VMware product helps a user to operate and manage different or hybrid clouds<\/a><\/u>. Through the use of this application, a person is able to do his\/her work on different cloud platforms from a single computer unit.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
