Virtualisierungshilfe
Virtualisierungshilfe, also known as hardware-assisted virtualization, refers to a set of technologies integrated into modern CPUs that significantly enhance the performance and efficiency of running virtual machines. Without this assistance, virtualization software would have to emulate hardware instructions in software, leading to substantial performance overhead. Virtualisierungshilfe allows the CPU to directly handle certain privileged instructions that are critical for virtualization, offloading these tasks from the hypervisor.
The primary benefit of Virtualisierungshilfe is improved performance. By enabling the processor to manage virtual machine
Two prominent examples of Virtualisierungshilfe technologies are Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) and AMD Virtualization (AMD-V).
