VMs (Virtual Machines): Software-based representations of physical computers, capable of executing applications and processes like their physical counterparts. VMs operate on a physical host machine, allowing multiple virtual machines to operate simultaneously and independently, which can enhance resource efficiency, scalability, and isolation of processes, potentially enhancing overall security.
