Advice & Information On Hyper V Training Courses

Big old Microsoft have finally opened the floodgates to the final version of it and its been available on download since august 2008. We aint talking about the latest version of the 360’s avatar characters, no, the main talking point here is windows hyper V.

Late last year, I went to a technet server keynote in London city, MS CEO Steve Ballmer gave a speech regarding the product of MS hyper v server 2008 to a crowd of 700 plus IT industry pro’s. We managed to get a preview of the features of hyper v. Things such as migration and memory distributions were covered.

There is no question that virtualisation is a ground breaking technology. We all know that in recent years the company VMware has dominated this market in recent times. I would suggest that you take into consideration the new MS product of hyper v and the many options their product offers.

There is no question about the advantages of virtualisation, its an environmentally friendly solution which will give way to saving energy costs for your infrastructure, but will also reduce the overheads of hardware costs by consolidating servers and networks. Not only that, the aspect of hardware underutilisation is also important.

Performance logs indicate that on average server CPU utilization is approximately 7 percent only. By running multiple virtual servers on one physical server you can maximise resource usage without affecting performance, in many cases up to a ratio of 1:10, i.e. run 10 virtual servers on one physical server.

Another product on the Microsoft bandwagon that they are going to release is Server Core. This in essence is a bare bones operating system that is fundamentally stripped off the .net framework which in turn can only be allowed certain roles that don’t depend on the .net framework as such. Things it doesn’t like are dynamic host config, network load and other things as well

I am sure those of you who are administrators will appreciate the power of automating tasks using scripts and will be keen to learn more about PowerShell and how it can help make our lives easier.

If hyper v is something you would consider useful for yourself or your business then it wise to research the many hyper v training courses out there to show you the ropes. Thanks for reading
