Abstract
In a method for managing a memory segment through use of a memory virtual appliance, data is encapsulated with the memory virtual appliance, in which the memory virtual appliance comprises a virtual machine configured to manage a memory segment in a physical memory. In addition, the memory virtual appliance is implemented using a virtualization wrapper comprising computer readable code enabling the encapsulated data to be shared among a plurality of clients. Moreover, the encapsulated data is stored in the memory segment controlled by the memory virtual appliance.
