What is Microsoft Hyper-V™ Server?

Microsoft Hyper-V™ Server is a stand-alone product that provides a simplified, reliable, cost-effective, and optimized virtualization solution enabling organizations to improve server utilization and reduce costs. It allows organizations to consolidate workloads onto a single physical server and is a good solution for organizations that want a basic and simplified virtualization solution for consolidating servers as well as for development and test environments. Low utilization infrastructure workloads, departmental applications, and simple branch office workloads are also candidates to virtualize using Hyper-V™ Server.

 

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V™ builds on the architecture and functions of Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V™ by adding multiple new features that enhance product flexibility.

The adoption of virtualization in the enterprise has increased flexibility in deployment and life cycle management of applications. IT professionals deploy and use virtualization to consolidate workloads and reduce server sprawl. Additionally, they deploy virtualization with clustering technologies to provide a robust IT infrastructure with high availability and quick disaster recovery. Even so, customers are looking for more flexibility.

Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V™ provides greater flexibility with live migration. Live migration is integrated with Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V™ and Microsoft Hyper-V™ Server 2008 R2. With Hyper-V™ live migration, you can move running virtual machines (VMs) from one Hyper-V™ physical host to another, without any disruption or perceived loss of service.

IT professionals increasingly look to live migration to create a dynamic and flexible IT environment that responds to emerging business needs. Live migration provides the core technology required for dynamic load balancing, VM placement, high availability for virtualized workloads during physical computer maintenance, and reduced data center power consumption.

 

Core Scenarios for Hyper-V™

Hyper-V™ provides a dynamic, reliable, and scalable virtualization platform combined with a single set of integrated management tools to manage both physical and virtual resources, enabling you to create an agile and dynamic data center. Hyper-V™ enables:

• Server Consolidation
• Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery
• Testing and Development
• Dynamic Data Center

 

Key Features of Hyper-V™

Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V™ adds new features to the first version of Hyper-V. For example, by using live migration in Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V, you can migrate running VMs from one physical computer to another, and add or remove storage from a VM while it is running. In addition, Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V™ takes better advantage of physical computer hardware with greater processor support and deeper support for physical computer hardware.
