About Microsoft Hyper-V

Hyper-V is a native type-1 hypervisor, developed by Microsoft. It provides hardware virtualization capabilities that enable organizations to create, manage, and run virtual machines at scale on x86-64 systems running Windows. It is included in Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows as an optional feature to be manually enabled. A server computer running Hyper-V can be configured to expose individual virtual machines to one or more networks.
