To virtualize or not, with Hyper-V R2

So, you have decided it is time to virtualize your servers. One evident solution would be to use a front runner of virtualization technologies, VMWare. There are certainly many reasons to choose VMWare but there are also cost issues to consider. Have you thought about Microsoft Hyper-V R2? Is Microsoft Hyper-V R2 ready for the enterprise? There is certainly more than one choice for virtualization these days. The Windows server environment of the division of Student Life has just undergone a complete hardware and software overhaul. The noise and heat of its former life has been replaced by a quieter, cooler, and more powerful and flexible computing platform. Come learn how we virtualized our Windows servers (and eventually our Linux servers), the tools and equipment you need to do the job, the benefits that we are enjoying, how we are now tackling the all-important disaster recovery issues, and how we are planning for business continuity, through Windows Failover Clustering and Hyper-V R2. Come learn from our experience and maybe share some of yours.
