SERVER VIRTUALIZATION SOFTWARE DEFINITION (continued):
by running a single OS kernel as its core and exporting that core functionality to various partitions on the host. Each of the partitions effectively becomes a stand-alone entity called a virtual private server (VPS).Virtuozzo comes with a proprietary Kernel Service Abstraction Layer (KSAL) that manages access to the kernel and prevents any single VPS from bringing the entire physical server down. It also has a proprietary file system to completely isolate the partitions, a security precaution that prevents a software fault in one partition from impacting an application or data in another
