Professional server environments use hypervisors that run directly on hardware (e.g.

run virtual machine inside another virtual machine inside a hypervisor ( our tutorial about installing VMware Player on Ubuntu Linux was actually done on a Windows computer!). Nested virtualizations are also possible e.g. There are many different hypervisors and software products (Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware Workstation, Oracle VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop are some of the big names in this area to name just a few – see full list here) and possibilities to install virtual machine on your existing physical computer.
