Virtualization

  • VirtualBox - free desktop virtualization software, only really for x86 / x86_64 based systems, current beta doesn't work on Mac Arm Silicon processors
  • UTM - easy frontend to use qemu virtualization on Mac Apple M Silicon processors
  • Vagrant - automates VirtualBox VMs for easy reproduction of local labs with scripted provisioners or calling Puppet or similar (I used this a lot at Cloudera)

VirtualBox

Open source VM desktop software.

Brilliant for its day on x86_64 machines.

Doesn't support new Apple Silicon ARM architecture chips properly yet, very buggy.
