The hypervisor is a piece of software that runs on top of hardware infrastructure that creates a virtualization platform. The hypervisor also provides a platform for running VM, on top of that underlying infrastructure. And also manages the sharing of physical resources among running VMs.There are 2 types of Hypervisors,
Type 1 (bare metal)
They are installed directly on top of the hardware of the host machine and act like an OS
Type 2 (hosted)
It’s like a software application and installs on top of the OS. Within the host, this can be started or stop on top of the OS
