Physical IT servers are tangible, powerful computers with hardware components like a motherboard, CPU, and memory, that are used to run operating systems and host applications. They are the physical machines that power IT infrastructure, unlike virtual servers which are software-based.
A IT virtual server is a software-based, emulated version of a physical server. It runs on top of a physical server, but provides the same functionality as a standalone server, allowing multiple virtual servers to operate independently on the same hardware. This virtualization allows for efficient resource utilization, cost savings, and increased flexibility in managing computing resources.
