    Hi there,

    First the Pros of Hypervisor, with a hypervisor, you can successfully run and monitor concurrent virtual machines on a host. Without it, operating multiple applications on the same hardware often creates conflicts.

    VMMs make co-existing on one system possible and consolidate workloads and multiple operating environments. Hypervisor secures the operating environment from internal conflicts.

    Now Cons of Hypervisor, it becomes challenging to find reliable hypervisor services for your particular enterprise needs within a budget. Though free and open-source hypervisors are available for the same.

    Security may become an issue. While robust, hypervisors may become an easy cyberattack target. Vulnerability increases because of the centralized system, the company network, server rooms, etc.
