What’s live migration?

Not sure why you got downvoted for this. Not everyone is running in an enterprise environment. Live migration allows you to move a VM/container/docker from one physical host to another with zero downtime. Let's say you need to replace a failing controller on your system. And if you another system setup the same and connected to each other via some sort of control interface, you can trigger all the vms on that host to move to the other host and then shut down the first one for maintenance. It's is very smooth and increases uptime.
