Read this article to know Windows 8 virtualization features. After seeing a screenshot on Windows 8 website, I came to know that Microsoft is testing Virtualization in Windows 8 so to run multiple operating system instances on same hardware system by making system hardware independent of operating system.

Every day, we are getting new information about Windows 8 OS. This information is extracted from Microsoft leaked screenshots during Windows 8 testing phase. All these leaked articles and videos depict Windows 8 leaked features. While reading this leaked information, I came across a screenshot which outlined Windows 8 Virtualization features. I want to explain Virtualization concept, According to this unique concept we can establish relationship between two independent operating systems by making their hardware configuration compatible with one another by installing a set of hardware drivers to the operating system such that you can experience Windows XP OS on Windows 7 OS using virtual box software.

Virtualization in Windows 8 OS allows you to enjoy multiple operating systems in Windows 8 environment. Using virtualization concept, you can run several instances at single piece of hardware. In windows 8 virtualization, you can also include Hyper-V 3.0 for first time in virtualization technology that allows normal version of Windows in non-server building that creates working potential against hardware configuration.

Windows 8 kernel is known with the name of MinWin and consists of multiple operating system components that stripped down with Windows functionality. It greatly expands powerful virtualization environment in Windows 8 using fast Hyper-V access to MinWin. You can also create virtualized host instances for Windows that allows individual applications to have their own instance.

Not only this, you can organize enhanced desktop optimization for Windows server core which allows Hyper-V V3 on the workstation that potentially prevent surface in terms of memory footprints and race space disk. This information is referred by taking leaked screenshot information about Windows 8 virtualization features.
