This book is a guide on how to use VirtualBox. It begins by guiding you on how to get started with VirtualBox by installing and configuring it in Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, and Solaris platforms. You are then guided on how to create your first virtual machine in the VirtualBox. The process of creating a Hadoop cluster in VirtualBox is also discussed. This has been explained in a step-by-step manner to help you grasp every concept. With VM groups, one can group together virtual machines. With this, a single action can be applied to all the virtual machines which are contained in the group. This book guides you on how to create a VM group in VirtualBox. You are also shown how to emulate a network by use of common networking devices such as routers and PCs in a VirtualBox. The VirtualBox extension pack is very essential, as it helps us accomplish much in a VirtualBox. This book teaches you how to install and set it up in VirtualBox. The book also guides you on how you can share folders between the guest and the host in a VirtualBox. The process of adding new drives to the virtual machines is explored. The following topics are discussed in this book: - Getting Started with VirtualBox - Creating the First Virtual Machine - Creating a Hadoop Cluster - Creating and Managing VM Groups - Emulating a Network in VirtualBox - Installing VirtualBox Extension Pack - Sharing Folders between Host and Guest in VirtualBox - Adding a New Drive to Virtual Machines

Deploy and manage a cost-effective virtual environment using VirtualBox.

Companies may store as well as manage data on a cloud, allowing for increased scalability in delivery of the applications as well as software as a service. Cloud computing also provides data transport but also storage via the internet or via a direct connection that ensures continuous data flow between the devices, apps, as well as the cloud. In the Internet of Things (IoT), we know that the sensors, machines, various gadgets create a tremendous quantity of data each second. Cloud computing aids in the storing and analysis of this data in order to maximise the benefits of an IoT infrastructure for the organization. Cloud computing plays an important role in fostering this kind of cooperation so that the IoT solution has a high degree of visibility. And the things become more easy for you to understand the basics and significance of Cloud computing& IoT and also how it greatly influence the task of our daily life from individual to corporate level. The book is composed of the total five chapters which introduces you the basics of cloud computing and Internet of things with their significant applications.
