In cloud computing, virtualisation  is used to give access to all tenants working on the server. This video breaks down the concept of virtualisation for easy understanding.
Virtualisation could be server based  or desktop based. An organisation making optimal use of its computer resources could still incur high cost from maintenance, up-time, update and upgrade of its several resources, also lots of servers means lots of energy consumption. However this organisation can take up virtualisation services from virtualisation companies.
Server virtualisation provides multiple virtual machines (VM) that resides in  fewer servers and users would still interact with a piece of hardware as if they were multiple servers. This saves resources, energy of running all servers and time of running software update and maintenance.
Desktop virtualisation provides energy efficient servers for the desktop. Here users are given access to their desktops and associated applications through the servers. It gives security in event of loss of desktop and also consumes less energy.
