What characteristics or capabilities differentiate a bare-metal hypervisor from a virtualization environment?
A bare-metal hypervisor is installed directly on hardware, and a virtualization environment runs in another OS, such as Windows or Linux. Bare-metal hypervisors are more efficient and can provide more resources to virtual machines; they're intended mainly for server consolidation. Virtualization environments are targeted toward desktop OSs and enable a single desktop computer to run multiple OSs for the purposes of software testing or running PC applications on a Mac, for example.
