    Hyper-V

    Hyper-V is a virtualization platform from Microsoft. It enables multiple operating systems to run on a single physical server. It offers numerous advantages for companies that want to consolidate their IT infrastructure and optimize hardware utilization.

    By consolidating servers, companies can reduce the number of physical servers. This reduces the costs for space, energy, cooling, hardware and service. Hyper-V enables companies to increase the utilization of hardware resources to up to 80% without sacrificing performance.

    At system level, Hyper-V offers functions such as high-availability mechanisms for mission-critical applications. This fulfills the requirements for service level agreements. The platform can also be easily scaled to efficiently meet new operating requirements.

    Operating systems that are no longer supported by new hardware platforms can be easily converted and operated on the virtualized platform with the help of Hyper-V. This requires support from the compatibility list.

    Important components of Hyper-V

    • The Hyper-V hypervisor forms the virtualization layer for the shared use of hardware resources.
    • The Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) format enables access to disk resources on local and shared storage systems.
    • Hyper-V Replica provides uninterrupted availability of virtual machines in the event of a hardware failure by replicating them to another physical host.
    • Live Migration makes it possible to move running virtual machines between physical hosts during operation and without any interruptions. In this way, maintenance work can be carried out on the physical servers without interrupting operations.
    • Failover Clustering provides higher availability of applications and services by creating a cluster of virtual machines that can run on multiple physical hosts.
    • Hyper-V Manager enables centralized management of Hyper-V hosts and virtual machines.
    • Virtual Switch enables the creation and management of virtual networks for virtual machines.
    • Overall, Hyper-V offers a powerful virtualization platform that helps companies optimize their IT infrastructure and reduce their operating costs.
