2. 2  Industry trends and challenges  Windows Server 2012: Beyond virtualization  Complete virtualization platform  Improved scalability and performance  Connecting to cloud services  Summary  Get started

3. 3 New apps Device proliferation Data explosion Cloud computing

4. 4 Beyond virtualization Scale and secure workloads, cost-effectively build a private cloud, and securely connect to cloud services Every app, any cloud Build on an open and scalable web platform that supports applications across premises Modern workstyle, enabled Support a mobile and flexible work style The power of many servers, the simplicity of one Efficiently manage infrastructure while maximizing uptime and minimizing failures and downtime

5. Respond with agility to changing business needs Control costs and improve efficiency Connect datacenters to remote sites and clouds 5

6. CONNECTING TO CLOUD SERVICES Common identity and management framework IMPROVED SCALABILITY AND PERFORMANCE High-density, scalable environment Fully isolated, multitenant environment COMPLETE VIRTUALIZATION PLATFORM 6 6

7. Provide a fully isolated, multitenant environment that includes tools to help guarantee SLAs, enable chargebacks, and support self- service delivery 7 Increase VM mobility Simultaneous live migrations Shared-nothing live migration Storage live migration Easier-to-use administrative tools Create and isolate virtual networks Hyper-V Network Virtualization Hyper-V Extensible Switch Ensure resource availability Resource Metering Quality of Service (QoS) features

8. Run multiple virtual networks on a physical network Abstract network configuration for virtual machines Remove virtual LAN (VLAN) constraints Allow flexible placement of virtual machines—even offsite Enable datacenters without boundaries Deliver multitenant security and isolation Support infrastructure as a service (IaaS) scenarios 8 SQL ServerWebStorage Orange sees SQL ServerWebStorage Blue sees SQL Server WebStorageWebStorage WHAT’S REALLY HAPPENING

9. Deliver a high-density, scalable environment that can adapt to perform optimally based on changing needs 9 Scale up VMs 64-node Hyper-V clusters 64 virtual processors and 1 TB memory per virtual machine New 64 TB VHDX format Increase VM density Dynamic Memory and smart paging 4,000 virtual machines per cluster Improve VM performance Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) support Virtual Fibre Channel support Hardware offloading

10. Increase virtual machine density Increase virtual machine memory resources, as needed, without reboot downtime Reclaim unused virtual machine memory resources for reallocation 10 Virtual machine Maximum memory Minimum memory Startup Virtual machine Maximum memory Minimum memory Virtual machine Maximum memory Minimum memory

11. Use a common identity and management framework for security-enhanced and reliable cross-premises connectivity 11 Federate identities for consistent security and ease of use Federate identity across private, public, and hybrid clouds Support claims-aware identity solutions Provide seamless security with a single sign-on experience Easily integrate with other federation platforms Enable secure cross-premises connectivity Connect securely to hosting providers Enable secure connectivity among geographically separate locations Use existing networking equipment and technology standards Move virtual machines to other sites or hosting providers without network reconfiguration
