Intel Virtualization Technology

Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) is comprised of a set of processor enhancements that improve traditional software-based virtualization solutions. These integrated features give virtualization software the ability to take advantage of offloading workload to the system hardware, enabling more streamlined virtualization software stacks and "near native" performance characteristics.
Virtualization solutions enhanced by Intel VT allow a platform to run multiple operating systems and applications as independent virtual machines. Using virtualization capabilities, one computer system can function as multiple "virtual" systems.
Virtualization has emerged as a compelling technology for server platforms, offering data center managers the ability to consolidate multiple workloads on one physical server system. Server consolidation offers lower hardware acquisition costs as well as improved data center performance efficiency.
Client platforms are utilizing virtualization technology to enable secure partitions for system back and security features.
