What are Virtualized Servers

Virtualized Servers are servers that run in virtualized environments. Virtualized Servers have been decoupled from physical hardware, and run using resources allocated by a hypervisor and shared from a single physical server machine. Virtualized Servers operate in effectively the same way as traditional servers from a software perspective, differing only at the hardware level.
