26. What Is Microsoft Server Virtualization?
Virtualization enables a single physical server to host multiple "guest servers",
while each guest server perceives itself to be a fully distinct and independent
server
Each virtual machine has their own representation of hardware, an isolated OS and
application environment, and a unique network and security identity

27. Why Is MSIT Using Hyper-V?
Microsoft Confidential 2/8/2012 34
28. How Does MSIT Implement Hyper-V?
The preferred infrastructure platform is the
MSIT “Scale Unit”
Hyper-V R2 deployments on the Scale
Unit utilize 16 node clusters to
minimize sunk capacity and maximize
flexibility
All server consolidation hosts run Windows
Server 2008 Enterprise Server Core, with R2
the current standard
All virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) hosts
run Hyper-V Server R2
Virtual machine configurations and
resource allocations are very similar to
those of the same workload on a physical
machine

30. How Does MSIT Operate Hyper-V?
All virtualization hosts are managed centrally, by a full compliment of
tools that are appropriate for the environment and platform
System Center Configuration Manager, Operations Manager, and Virtual Machine
Manager agents are deployed and provide central administration
Hardware support agents, antivirus, and other tools provide additional functions

34. What did MSIT learn from its experience with
Virtualization?
Always strive to “virtualize appropriately”
Apply best practices for optimizing performance
Provision and manage VMs similarly to physical
machines
Ensure you maintain capacity slightly ahead of the
demand
Simplify and standardize the host computer and
virtual machine configuration, as much as possible

35. Conclusions
Machine virtualization continues to increase Microsoft IT’s
operational efficiency in the server space
Use of virtualization has reduced MSIT’s space and power
consumption significantly
Proper use of virtualization has allowed Microsoft to avoid millions
of dollars of capital spend
MSIT has been able to pass-along cost savings
Machine virtualization and complimentary technologies are critical
parts of MSIT’s business strategies and meeting their priorities
