1. ENABLINGTHE MODERN DATA CENTER HYPER-V MANAGEMENT AND
CONTROL Hyper-V Readiness Series: Part One
2. ABOUT US
3. THE HYPERVISOR ECOSYSTEM vSphere has enjoyed a decade almost
a decade as the de facto standard hypervisor platform Much
ofVMwares success revolves around the growth in the ecosystem The
ecosystem has enabled customers to easily fill gaps inVMwares
offerings and buy solutions that are better than those offered
byVMware
4. PLATFORM COMPLETION Innovative technologies hit the market
and become platforms in an of themselves In order to extend the
capability of these platforms, vendors either hook into platform
APIs or embed their own functionality The ultimate result is a
complete platform
5. AN EVOLVING ECOSYSTEM As the platform matures Third party
solutions may begin to be pushed out as the platform vendor seeks
to expand profits and overall share Third party vendors must
continually innovate or be subsumed by their platform partner New
platforms may emerge that challenge the originals dominance
6. HYPER-VS EMERGENCE Hyper-V came on the scene well after
vSphere had cemented its position It was sorely lacking in many
ways With latest release, Hyper-V has achieved feature parity
mostly with vSphere
7. HYPER-VS ECOSYSTEM Hyper-Vs ecosystem is quickly catching up
toVMware Hyper-V does owe some credit toVMware for paving the way
Many vendors have added Hyper-V support to existing vSphere
products This has enabled a faster ecosystem build than was
possible with vSphere The ecosystem now provides support for all of
the major areas Backup, storage, monitoring, security,
infrastructure efficiency Microsoft even has Oracle on board very
important!
9. HYPER-V ANDTHE CLOUD Hyper-V is but one part of the overall
puzzle Microsoft has a major advantage overVMware: Azure Workloads
can move seamlessly between on-premises and Azure Azure should be
considered a part of Microsofts Hyper-V ecosystem Microsofts other
cloud moves solidify the approach Office 365 replaces Exchange for
many organizations
10. THE DATA CENTER IS ALSO EVOLVING Many platform options
provide customers with ability to choose where workloads should run
Locally On PaaS (Azure) In SaaS (Office 365) Azure PaaS Office
365
11. HYPER-V 2012 R2 AND AZURE Microsoft has neatly hooked
Hyper-V 2012 R2 and Azure to provide complementary, but critical
functionality VMs shift seamlessly between Azure and Windows Server
2012 R2 Windows Azure Hyper-V Recovery Manager Excellent for
disaster recovery needs Provides location independent management of
Hyper-V Replica
12. HYPER-VS GROWING MARKET SHARE Hyper-V penetration 2013: 14%
2015: Expected to surpass 16% (39% overall growth rate) Every
measurement has its bias Average number of hypervisors = 1.82

13. COMMON HYPER-V WORKLOADS VDI growing common use case
Test/Dev General virtualization Particularly in certain verticals
(i.e. education, non-profit)
14. GETTING FROM HERETOTHERE: FACTS vSphere remains and will
remain the dominant hypervisor for the foreseeable future Hyper-V
has achieved almost feature parity with vSphere The Hyper-V
ecosystem has matured to a level where Hyper-V, too, can enable
complete end-to-end, full-stack solutions in the data center
15. GETTING FROM HERETOTHERE: RISKS Increasingly common
projects 1. Implementing Hyper-V side-by-side with vSphere 2.
Migrating from vSphere to Hyper-V 3. Implementing a new virtual
environment atop Hyper-V only #1 and #2 carry migration risks that
must be well understood
16. GETTING FROM HERETOTHERE: RISKS Misunderstanding of
technical differences between platforms Not ensuring that the
internal ecosystem is fully prepared for a transition to or the
addition of Hyper-V Not understanding the performance
characteristics of key workloads before migration Has a direct
impact on the overall costs of running the data center Making
decisions based on guesswork/hypothetical data
17. MIGRATION REWARDS All Hyper-V Potentially lower costs,
particularly if you already had SCCM Seamless support forWindows
Azure Some Hyper-V Use the right hypervisor for the right job
Ecosystem support enables integrated management
18. WHAT STANDS INTHE WAY? 70% of IT budget = keeping the
lights on How do we change this equation and bring a supply/demand
perspective to data center economics
19. LETTHE DATA CENTER MANAGE ITSELF CIOs and other C-levelers
want faster, simpler, nimbler IT. Administrators spend an
inordinate amount of time managing, tuning, and attempting to
optimize the data center. Why not let computers manage themselves
using: Business goals SLAs
20. THANKYOU! Q & A Dont we have a Lego Star Destroyer to
giveaway?
