		+
		+	A '''hypervisor''' is a software program that enables multiple operating systems (OS) to share a single hardware platform. It is also known as a virtual machine manager (VMM) or virtualization software.
		+
		+	The hypervisor creates a layer of abstraction between the hardware and the OS, allowing multiple virtual machines (VMs) to run on a single physical machine. Each VM can run a different OS and have its own applications and resources, as if it were a separate physical machine.
		+
		+	Hypervisors are used for a variety of purposes, including server consolidation, cloud computing, and testing and development. They can help to improve the utilization and efficiency of hardware resources, and they can also provide flexibility and scalability by enabling the creation and management of VMs on demand.
