Abstract
This paper presents a comparative analysis of hypervisors: VMWare Workstation, Oracle VM Virtualbox and Red Hat Virtualization in terms of performance and physical resource consumption. In the past, each computer was used to serve a single function for the sake of simple management. This causes the inefficiently utilization of the computers. We analyzed hosted virtualization based on host operating system CentOS Desktop, VMWare Workstation hypervisor version 12.5, Oracle VM Virtualbox hypervisor version 5.1.12, benchmark programs used for evaluating CPU, main memory, storage and graphical performances, and physical memory and storage consumption. Results have shown that VMWare Workstation version 12.5 is suitable for CPU (33.68%), main-memory (31.81%), storage (28.97%), and graphic (46.44%). VMWare Workstation version 12.5 itself also consumes the small amount of physical memory (26.42%), and data storage (31.22%).
