Come See the MMS 2011 Private Cloud
Mar 23rd
The MMS 2011 Hands-on-Labs are based on HP’s Reference Configuration for Hyper-V Private Cloud. Here is the story in pictures. There are 400 labs and the 1600 virtual machines required for those labs are provisioned in 10 minutes, six times a day. System Center is used to manage the private cloud which is based on Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 SP1, HP EVA storage and HP c-Class BladeSystem 2-socket G7 servers with FlexFabric.
Server virtualization sessions at MMS 2011
Mar 17th
On March 21st 2011, Microsoft Management Summit 2011 will kick off in Las Vegas, sold out with about 5000 visitors. Of course a great deal of focus will be on Hyper-V private cloud, Azure public cloud and those parts of System Center that manage the private, public or even hybrid cloud.
Although I have already spent a full day on VMM 2012 during MVP Summit two weeks ago, I will definitely visit the majority of presentations on this topic.
Getting ready for the third generation of Hyper-V
Jan 27th
Ever since the appearance of Hyper-V in the market, I have been stressing and promoting the blessings of the Microsoft Virtualization platform. I started writing articles and blogs about Hyper-V and joined Jaap Wesselius in the Dutch Hyper-V User Group which assembles quarterly in different parts of the country. We have been presenting Hyper-V and related technologies many times and have grown a small community in the Netherlands. My endeavors have even earned me an MVP, albeit not for Hyper-V but for Cluster. If you meet me on Twitter, you know that whatever I communicate on this social network deals with Hyper-V and System Center related topics. I use it to promote the further growth of Hyper-V.
What’s next?
We have seen Hyper-V version 1 still beta in Windows Server 2008, Hyper-V RTM as an update, the major update Hyper-V R2 and Hyper-V Server 2008 R2. Now we are looking forward to Hyper-V vNext, “the next version” of Hyper-V, Hyper-V in Windows 8, Hyper-V Next Generation, Hyper-V Cloud, Hyper-V 2012 or whatever the marketing people at Microsoft think will capture our minds. I personally believe not even the word Hyper-V is sacred and could be replaced if it serves a purpose.
