baud rate = bit rate / N

where N is no-of-bits represented by each signal shift.

Server virtualization :

Server virtualization is a virtualization technique that involves partitioning a physical server into a number of small, virtual servers with the help of virtualization software. In server virtualization, each virtual server runs multiple operating system instances at the same time.

Server virtualization is more for a good reason. It offers the potential to dramatically save space and improve server efficiency. Vendors are in fierce competition to offer the most advanced tools that they hope will earn them the virtualization crown.

Hence, the given statement that 'Cloud computing uses Server virtualization.' is TRUE.
