Managed Virtual Machine (MVM) is a virtual machine that allows developers to start using DAVE's platform without wasting time in manually installing and configuring the development environment.
The MVM is created and managed using Vagrant (https://www.vagrantup.com/), which is a powerful tool that creates, configures and manages virtual development environments. Vagrant uses '''Providers ''' to integrate with the hypervisor that provides the virtual machines, that for the MVM is Oracle VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/). The entire virtual environment configuration is stored in simple plain text files, including the instructions for the '''provisioning tool ''' (Puppet, https://puppetlabs.com/), so that installation, management and update of the MVM is straightforward.
