This document discusses virtualization and VMware vSphere. It begins by asking what virtualization is and how it works. It then discusses types of virtualization like host-based and bare-metal virtualization. Benefits of virtualization are also mentioned. The document goes on to discuss specific virtualization platforms like VMware ESXi, vCenter Server, and vSphere. It provides details on features of vSphere like resource management, high availability, live migration, and more. Finally, it discusses virtual machines and how the virtualization layer abstracts and manages access to physical hardware resources for VMs.
Hyper v® 2012 vs v sphere™ 5.1 understanding the differencesSolarWinds
With Hyper-V 2012, Microsoft® has closed many of the gaps it previously had with VMware®, and this webcast will walk through a comparison of the scalability and features of both hypervisors:
· Architecture & footprint
· CPU & memory management
· Storage capabilities
· Mobility & availability
The discussion will provide a technical basis for understanding the pros and cons of both platforms for users looking to either choose one or who are considering using both.
The battle to be your virtualization vendor is in full swing, and it
has important ramifications for the vendors involved, and for your
data center. The goal of this whitepaper is to analyze the
technical aspects of the two major choices: VMware vSphere 4
and Microsoft Hyper-V R2 (as part of Windows Server 2008 R2).
The two contenders are described in technical detail, and then
those details are compared head-to-head. Typical pricing in two
scenarios is included. Analysis of these tools, how they will
impact your datacenter virtualization, and what the future likely
holds is included. »

How to Optimize Microsoft Hyper-V Failover Cluster and Double PerformanceStarWind Software
High availability in a virtualized workload may require to sacrifice failover cluster performance. Using an optimized for virtualization approach on data storage and virtual machines placement and protection will give you desired boost of performance.
The presentation shows how to:
- Achieve true Hyper-V cluster high availability with just 2 Hyper-V hosts and zero storage hardware
- Boost Hyper-V cluster performance by configuring automatic dynamic optimization
- Effectively track VMs resources usage
- Save an extra 30% of Hyper-V cluster resources by utilizing agentless antivirus
Session which I took while in Hewlett-Packard. This was for introducing the team-mates and colleagues to various virtualization technologies and basics.
Implementing a Hyper-V Virtualization InfrastructureASPE, Inc.
Virtualization is a hot topic today and for good reason. Using virtualization technologies organizations can reduce costs while increasing service provision and technical capabilities. Hyper-V, Microsoft’s latest offering in the virtualization market, presents a whole new virtual machine technology in the Microsoft product line. Comparable to VMware’s ESX server solution, Hyper-V comes out-of-the-box with Windows 2008 Server systems and can integrate with other Microsoft management tools such as System Center and group policies.
In this webinar, we will introduce you to the features and benefits of Hyper-V and you will gain important knowledge including:
· Hardware requirements of Hyper-V
· Benefits of Hyper-V over Virtual Server 2005
· Management options for large-scale implementations
· Deployment planning
· Keys to performance within virtual machines
Hypervisors and Virtualization - VMware, Hyper-V, XenServer, and KVMvwchu
With co-presenter Maninder Singh, delivered a presentation about hypervisors and virtualization technology for an independent topic study project for the Operating System Design (EECS 4221) course at York University, Canada in October 2014.
Virtualization, briefly, is the separation of resources or requests for a service from the underlying physical delivery of that service. It is a concept in which access to a single underlying piece of hardware is coordinated so that multiple guest operating systems can share a single piece of hardware, with no guest operating system being aware that it is actually sharing anything at all.
A virtual machine (VM) is a software program or operating system that not only exhibits the behavior of a separate computer but is also capable of performing tasks such as running applications and programs like a separate computer.
Easily confused with cloud-computing, virtualization is actually the software that powers cloud computing. VMware separates physical infrastructures and turns them into dedicated resources. It also allows multiple OS to run on the same server simultaneously. The purpose of virtualization is to reduce the cost of acquiring and maintaining multiple physical resources.

Hyper-V vs. vSphere: Understanding the DifferencesSolarWinds
For more information on Virtualization Manager visit: http://www.solarwinds.com/virtualization-manager.aspx
Watch this webcast: http://www.solarwinds.com/resources/webcasts/hyper-v-vs-vsphere-understanding-the-differences.html
Watch this webinar with Scott Lowe, Founder and Managing Consultant at The 1610 Group, and SolarWinds virtualization expert Jonathan Reeve where they discuss “Hyper-V vs. vSphere: Understanding the differences.”
The virtualization market is abuzz with talk of different hypervisors – most prominently VMware ESX® versus Microsoft Hyper-V®, who together own over 90% of the market. Small and medium businesses are already moving quickly toward Hyper-V, and a growing number of larger organizations are beginning to put plans in place to transition some portion of their environment from ESX to Hyper-V.
In this webcast we explore the reasons for these changes and the ecosystems for these two platforms both now and in the future. We also take a look ahead to what is known about Hyper-V 3.0 and why it warrants an even deeper look when evaluating hypervisors for your future virtualization deployments.
Early adopters of Microsoft Windows Server 2012 will find this guide to be a useful resource. It provides an explanation of new features in Windows Server 2012 and details upgrade paths, installations options and directions, hardware requirements, supported drivers and more.
In recent years, we have seen an overwhelming number of TV commercials that promise that the Cloud can help with many problems, including some family issues. What stands behind the terms “Cloud” and “Cloud Computing,” and what we can actually expect from this phenomenon? A group of students of the Computer Systems Technology department and Dr. T. Malyuta, whom has been working with the Cloud technologies since its early days, will provide an overview of the business and technological aspects of the Cloud.

16. A virtual machine is a software computer that, like a physical
computer, runs an operating system and applications. The virtual
machine is comprised of a set of specification and configuration files
and is backed by the physical resources of a host.
The virtual machine typically emulates a physical computing
environment, but requests for CPU, memory, hard disk, network and
other hardware resources are managed by a virtualization layer which
translates these requests to the underlying physical hardware.
