V Flashcards
VBA
Visual Basic
An object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft.
It is also a GUI-based development tool that offers a faster RAD than most other programming languages. It offers straightforward syntax.
VDE
Virtual Desktop Environment
A technology that allows users to remotely access a workstation via the internet as if they were sitting at the workstation.
VDI
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
A technology that allows users to remotely access a workstation via the internet as if they were sitting at the workstation.
VLAN
Virtual Local Area Network
A logical overlay network that groups together a subset of devices that share a physical LAN, isolating the traffic for each group. It helps networks by reducing the number of broadcast domains per network device and network subnet. This allows multiple networks to share the same physical infrastructure without interfering.
VLSM
Variable Length Subnet Masking
A computer networking technique to divide an IP network into subnets with different subnet masks. VLSM allows network designers to give each subnet a different number of IP addresses, ultimately resulting in less network congestion and wasted IPs.
VLSM allows network administrators to allocate IP addresses more efficiently and effectively, by using smaller subnet masks for subnets with fewer hosts and larger subnet masks for subnets with more hosts.
VM
Virtual Machine
An isolated computing environment created by abstracting resources from a physical machine.
A compute resource that uses software instead of a physical computer to run programs and deploy apps.
VoIP
Voice over IP
A technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line.
VPC
Virtual Private Cloud
A secure, isolated private cloud hosted within a public cloud.
It is a virtual network that closely resembles a traditional network that you’d operate in your own data center. After you create a VPC, you can add subnets.
VPN
Virtual Private Network
An encrypted connection over the Internet from a device to a network.
VTC
Video Teleconferencing
A live, visual connection between two or more remote parties over the internet that simulates a face-to-face meeting.
