Microsoft Virtualization ProductsFrom the Datacenter to the DesktopApplicationVirtualizationServerVirtualizationPresentationVirtualization“Having one vendor for the hypervisor, operating system, and much of our application software was very appealing to us from a support and cost perspective.”Bert Van Pottelberghe, Sales Director, HostbasketDesktopVirtualizationUser StateVirtualizationDocument redirectionOffline files
Server Consolidation: The Fastest Way to Reduce CostsChallenges:Underutilized hardware
Excessive power consumption
Expensive space across datacenter and branch offices“We expect to consolidate an additional 75 servers using Hyper-V, which will lead to a cost savings of more than $325,000 annually. By the time we hit our fifth virtual machine, we’ve usually paid for the host. Long term, we will be able to reduce our total data center holdings by 75 percent—from nearly 400 servers to fewer than 100 servers.”Robert McShinsky Senior Systems Administrator, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center Server Utilization
Virtualized WorkloadsMicrosoft fully supports our key server applications in a virtualized environmentMicrosoft has updated server workload licensing to enable virtualization mobilityManagement of the workloads is key, not just the virtual machine“Maxol runs Exchange Server 2007, SQL Server 2005, Terminal Services, and file and print servers as key workloads in its virtual environment. Going forward, nearly every business application at Maxol will be a candidate for virtualization.”Maxol Case Study“We’ve seen first-hand that we can virtualize everything from file, print, and web servers to database servers running SQL Server and Oracle, and actually have the virtual machine run *faster* than what it ran on our original physical box.”Janssen Jones, Indiana University
