AWS, JavaScript, React - Deploy Web Apps on the Cloud - Cloud Computing: Virtualization

The video tutorial introduces the concept of virtualization, emphasizing its importance as the backbone of cloud computing. Virtualization allows IT resources to be abstracted from physical hardware, enabling efficient sharing and scalability. It involves creating virtual machines that provide customizable, on-demand resources. The tutorial highlights the benefits of virtualization, such as maximizing hardware utilization and enhancing cloud capabilities.
