Machine Virtualisation and OS Emulation

Machine virtualisation (emulation):
  • VirtualBox, VMWare, Hyper-V, etc.
  • VirtualBox is totally free while one has to pay to use VMWare
OS container (simulation) using host kernel:
  • Docker: The most common OS emulation using host kernel, not a fully separated environment like virtual machines.
OS container orchestration:
  • Kubernetes: Not a direct competitor of Docker, Kubernetes utilises Docker containers and orchestrate them into a service crossing between machines.
