Readers will choose one of five hypervisors for building their baseline lab environment, and will be guided through performing all of the necessary setup tasks. This allows students to become more familiar with virtualization technologies, gain mastery over their chosen hypervisor, and design a safe and secure virtual lab environment for further endeavors.
The second edition of this work covers new technologies, and adds an additional 400 pages of guidance and extra content over the first edition.
Students should be aware that this is volume 2 of a two volume set, and that both volumes are required for the full experience. Volume 1 can be found here:https://www.amazon.com/Building-Virtual-Machine-Labs-Hands/dp/B09GXHNJFC
