| Methods and Techniques | 1. Theoretical Explanation: The topics are explained theoretically within the scope of the course. Students listen to topic explanations in order to understand the basic concepts of programming and the logic of algorithms. 2. Applied Studies: Students carry out studies with various examples under the mentorship of the course instructor in order to apply the topics explained theoretically. Gains are tried to be achieved. 3. Step-by-Step Solution: The encountered problems are solved step by step and how each step works is explained. With this method, students are provided with a better command of the topics. 4. Real Life Examples: Real life examples and problem scenarios are presented for a better understanding of the topics. In this way, students see how to use what they have learned in practice. 5. Laboratory Sheets and Quizzes: Students' progress is evaluated with weekly laboratory handouts and pre-exam quizzes, and whether the topics are understood is monitored. |

Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to teach students the basic principles, methods and applications of virtualization technologies. As part of the course, students will learn the concept of virtualization, different types of virtualization and their areas of use; they will examine how virtualization works at the hardware, operating system and application level.
Students will experience virtualization tools such as virtual machines, hypervisors and container technologies in practice; they will learn how physical resources are managed efficiently in virtual environments. At the end of the course, students will have the skills to analyze virtualization technologies, manage systems by establishing virtualized environments and apply virtualization technologies in cloud computing environments. This course also aims to provide information on topics such as the advantages of virtualization, security measures and performance management.
