Server Virtualization

Hyper-V Architecture Provided by: OS ISV / IHV / OEM Parent Partition Child Partitions Microsoft Hyper-V Microsoft / XenSource VM Worker Processes Applications Applications Applications Applications WMI Provider User VM Service Mode Windows Windows Server Non- Xen-Enabled Server 2008 2003, 2008 Hypervisor Linux Kernel Aware OS Linux Windows Windows Kernel VSP Kernel VSC VSC Kernel IHV Drivers VMBus VMBus VMBus Emulation Hypercall Adapter Mode Windows hypervisor Ring -1 “Designed for Windows” Server Hardware

Hyper-V Capabilities – 32-bit (x86) & 64-bit (x64) VMs – Large memory support (64 GB) per VM – SMP VMs (up to 4 cores) – Integrated cluster support for HA & Quick Migration – BitLocker: Seamless, secure data encryption – Live Backup: Volume Shadow Service integration – Pass-through disk access for VMs – Virtual Machine snapshots – New hardware sharing architecture (VSP/VSC/VMBus) • Disk, networking, input, video – Robust networking: VLANs and NLB – DMTF standard for WMI management interface – Support for Full or Server Core installations

Windows Server Core • Server Core: new minimal installation option – Provides essential server functionality – Command Line Interface only, no GUI Shell • Benefits – Less code results in fewer patches and reduced servicing burden – Low surface area server for targeted roles – More secure and reliable with less management

Security Isolation – No sharing of virtualized devices – Separate VMBus instance per vm to the parent – No sharing of memory • Each has its own address space – VMs cannot communicate with each other, except through traditional networking – Guests can’t perform DMA attacks because they’re never mapped to physical devices – Guests cannot write to the hypervisor – Parent partition cannot write to the hypervisor

Virtualization and High-Availability • Traditional Non-Virtualized • Virtualized Environment Environment – Value of the physical server – Downtime is bad, but affects goes up only one workload – Downtime is far worse because multiple workloads are affected Virtualization and High-Availability Go Hand in Hand

Windows Server Virtualization High Availability • Providing solutions for both planned and unplanned downtime • Planned downtime – Quickly move virtualized workloads to service underlying hardware – More common than unplanned • Unplanned downtime – Automatic failover to other nodes (hardware or power failure) – Not as common and more difficult

Quick Migration Fundamentals VHDs 1. Save state a) Save entire vm state SAN Storage 2. Move virtual machine a) Move storage connectivity from origin to destination host 3. Restore state and Run a) Restore vm and run b) Done Network Connectivity

Virtualization “Virtualization without good management is more dangerous than not using virtualization in the first place.” – TOM BITTMAN, GARTNER

Application and Desktop Virtualization

Mobile PCs yield positive ROI Corporate knowledge assets at risk Mobile users work on average Over 600K laptops lost in US 3.2 hours per week more than in 2005; 80% of companies’ desktop users data on user PCs Gartner, Forrester Safeware Insurance

Microsoft Application Virtualization* Dynamically streaming software as a centrally managed service Life without traditional software installation • Applications to users at log on • Accelerated desktop deployment • Centralized permissions • Minimize App to App compatibility testing • Sandboxed applications • Run real-time usage reports • Enable device roaming In a recent IDC study, customers highlight the cost and time savings with Application Virtualization Cost Savings Time Savings Microsoft Application Virtualization customers reduced help desk support 30% of customers experienced more volume and call time by 65% than 20% in cost savings with Microsoft 36% of customers saved at least Application Virtualization compared to 40% in IT labor with Microsoft their prior solution Application Virtualization compared to their prior solution
