A single hypervisor hosts a few departmental VMs with no failover cluster. Which virtualization model does this describe?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
One hypervisor, a handful of VMs, no cluster buddies—that is stand-alone virtualization. Fine for a quiet department lab; not the same as automatic failover pools. Know the difference before promising five-nines.
Full Explanation
Stand-alone virtualization runs guests on an individual host without cluster membership for automatic restart elsewhere. Clustered HA, multi-cloud orchestration, and hot-site mirroring add mobility or recovery capabilities this simple model lacks. Recognizing stand-alone limits sets correct availability expectations.
