The noun is a regular process noun built from the verb 'virtualize', so the derivation is straightforward for learners who know the base.
Etymology
Virtualization comes from virtual, which originally meant 'in effect' or 'in power' and is related to virtue. It means making 'in effect' versions of hardware—like running many virtual servers on one physical machine—so the word refers to creating virtual computer resources.
