OpenNebulaConf2019

In this talk, StorPool will present the concept of nested virtualization and PCI pass-through. Nested virtualization is when you have virtual machines running inside other virtual machines. If done right, nested virtualization is extremely suitable for testing large virtualized environments, without the need for having hundreds of physical servers.

This approach empowers system administrators by reducing the time and effort needed to run/test multiple dynamic environments. This is done by having easier automation/provisioning, API control and much more. In a nested virtualization solution, the physical hardware is sliced and diced fast and easy, which gives you a large set of opportunities to experiment without the need for huge investments in physical hardware or time and effort needed to reinstall/set-up software.

Join this talk to learn more about why and how to do nested virtualization with OpenNebula and achieve an inception moment of having virtual machines, inside virtual machines, inside virtual machines…
