Execute Multiple Workloads on a Single Hardware Platform (Download)
Embedded systems become increasingly hardware-intensive — and that’s a problem. Every time new hardware is bolted on, it brings extra costs, more points of failure, greater maintenance complexity, and a more difficult path for future upgrades.
Virtualization and hypervisors offer a way out. By replacing physically separate platforms with virtual machines (VMs), multiple subsystems can be combined into a single hardware platform — a technique known as workload consolidation.
