Why Most Developers Don't Understand Virtualization

Virtualization explained: VMs, hypervisors, containers, Docker, Kubernetes & WSL—your map from full-OS isolation to Linux on Windows.

We walk IBM-to-VMware VM history, Type 1 vs Type 2 hypervisors (ESXi, Hyper-V, Xen, KVM vs VirtualBox), Linux namespaces and cgroups, Dockerfiles and Docker Hub, Kubernetes pods and the control plane (etcd, scheduler, kubelets), then WSL1 vs WSL2 and when Docker Desktop on Windows expects WSL2. Which layer is right for you? Pick the lightest tool that still fits isolation and compatibility.
