[Middle English propellen, from Latin
 virtualization An umbrella term for enhancing a computer's ability to do work. Following are the ways virtualization is used.

Hardware Virtualization
Partitioning the computer's memory into separate and isolated "virtual machines" simulates multiple machines within one physical computer.
 revenue from an estimated $2.8 billion in 2009 to $10.5 billion in 2013, an annual compound growth rate of 39%, according to the report.

The report is part of Market Monitor, a new supply-side primary research service from The 451 Group Research and its wholly owned subsidiary Wholly Owned Subsidiary

The server virtualization (1) Running applications in separate, isolated partitions within a single server. The "virtual machine" method can run different operating systems simultaneously, whereas the "OS virtualization" method runs applications for only one operating system (see virtual machine and OS  management segment will account for the first major wave of growth in the marketplace in 2010 and 2011, driven by revival of the hardware upgrade cycle and increasing recognition of the economic benefits of virtualization. Beginning in 2012 and 2013, increased adoption of desktop virtualization will drive a second wave of growth as the desktop market begins to move from isolated pockets of usage to wider-scale deployments.

Meanwhile, commodification Commodification (or commoditization) is the transformation of what is normally a non-commodity into a commodity, or, in other words, to assign value. As the word commodity has distinct meanings in business and in Marxist theory, commodification  is eroding revenue growth for the hypervisor and some other areas of the virtualization stack, "Virtual machine software is increasingly being seen as a commodity," said Dan Kusnetzky, Vice President of Research Operations for The 451 Group. "The result has been a decline in the rapid growth of the overall market. We believe that other areas in this broad market are going to be the source of growth in the future."

Market Monitor predicts that revenue from software tools that manage virtual environments will more than make up for revenue lost to commodification. The management stack currently accounts for more than 80% of total revenue in the sector and is growing rapidly. "The server virtualization management market is evolving to the point where it is beginning to pose a credible threat to the incumbent vendors of enterprise systems management, and we're keenly monitoring how the big vendors respond to this challenge," said Rachel Chalmers, Research Director, Infrastructure Management at The 451 Group. "The ability to manage virtual servers is also a precondition pre·con·di·tion
