VM
A VM, or virtual machine, is an isolated computer created in software on top of a physical machine that runs its own operating system and programs.
VM is short for virtual machine. Software called a hypervisor divides the CPU, memory and storage of one physical computer among several VMs, and each VM runs its own operating system in isolation from the others.
Cloud services often provide servers in the form of rented VMs, and developers use VMs to create test environments or to run programs separately from their main computer.
