Hypervisor is the obvious choice, as it is designed to manage multiple virtual environments. All other answers are incorrect as none of them manage virtual machines.

A hypervisor is specialized software or firmware that allows the creation, management, and provisioning of virtual machines (VMs) on a physical host. It enables the administrator to allocate resources such as CPU, memory, and storage to each VM, as well as to manage the lifecycle of virtual machines.
