Elastic Computing over the Cloud
Assistant Professor Mingyue Ji
A virtual machine is no different than any other physical computer like a laptop or phone, only it relies on software rather than physical components to run programs and deploy apps. It also enables one or more virtual machines to run on a single physical computer, saving physical space, time and management costs. For these reasons, modern cloud…
