Abstract

Technologies for duplicating virtual machines (VMs) are described. A virtual machine monitor (VMM) may operate a parent virtual machine (VM), which may include a parent virtual memory and a parent virtual central processing unit (VCPU). The VMM or a host platform may obtain a command to duplicate the parent VM to create a child VM. In response to the command, the VMM or host may obtain a VCPU state of the parent VCPU, and generate the child VM including a child VCPU based on a state of the parent VCPU and a child virtual memory based on the parent virtual memory. Other embodiments are described herein and claimed.
