Default Linux Server Setup Questions

So...

I took the plunge and converted my server computer over to Debian 8. Once I got everything configured, raid 10 drive set up, etc., I have started setting up a server using the Linux server guide.

Why do you run a Linux server on a virtual machine on a Linux machine? Why not just set up and run the server from the Linux machine itself?

I'm guessing I either took the guide too literally, I overcomplicated things (common for me), or there's a reason I am unaware of...


Thanks,
Riklin
