Let me hazard a guess that you already use Virtualization in your environment,
or are thinking about implementing it... The question is whether you feel you
have pushed the boundaries of what is possible, have a ‘server hardware to user
experience’ management approach and are really answering the needs of the
business.
Close your eyes, sit back and think of all of the things you could be
leveraging Virtualization for, from the next workload such as Desktop
Virtualization or application compatibility for Windows 7, to Disaster Recovery,
even the Test and Dev environment.
Now enter
Microsoft Virtualization
, consisting of
Windows Server 2008 R2 (featuring Hyper-V technology)
and
System Center Virtual Machine Manager R2
- Microsoft Virtualization offers an end-to-end virtualization solution. From
the cloud to the desktop, Microsoft's
suite of System Center Virtual Machine Manager products
provide you with the choice you need to design and manage your own customized
solution.
Interested? In this edition we have included a number of examples through case
studies of how others have leveraged the technologies and resources to help you
take the next step in Virtualization.
