“…With the emergence of big data, there is a demand for the huge storage and compute facility [7]. Cloud DC is the ultimate solution for the compute/storage infrastructure at a large scale [1]. The consumers can avoid capital expenditure 2 (Capex) and operational expenditure (Opex) by leasing the compute/storage servers from clouds.…”

“…Virtualization is the process that emulates Virtual machines/ Virtual containers on a physical host machine. A number of Virtual machines/Virtual containers are invoked in a host machine to achieve server consolidation [1]. Server consolidation exploits the host to its fullest and leads to fewer machines usage.…”

“…Hence choosing the right VT profits the CSPs as more computing power can be extracted at the cost of less number of machines. The different kinds of VT that are implemented in DCs can be categorized as hardware-based virtualization and OS based virtualization [1] [2]. Virtual machines(VM), Virtual Containers (VCs), Containers within VM, Lightweight VMs and Unikernels [2] are the various types of VT.…”

Today most of the consumer services ranging from education to banking, hospital management to ticket booking are made online. The online services are hosted in cloud and they are mostly time-critical applications. The cloud-based applications depend on datacenter (DC) resources for computation, communication, and storage. The resource utilization in the cloud needs to cope with the dynamic workload and stochastic request spikes. Virtualization is the key technology for effective resource utilization in the cloud data center. The type of virtualization technology (VT) that is adapted for the delivery of cloud application ensures the quality of service. The goal of this paper is to compare and contrast the performance measures of various virtualization technologies for heterogeneous workloads. The paper presents the impact of VT in the development of application in the cloud. Each virtualization technology outperforms the other in some or other performance metrics. In spite of the differences, certain virtualization technology dominates depending upon the application requirements in the software development sector.
