📍Virtual
Many organizations are reevaluating their virtualization strategy as costs rise, and environments become more complex. Microsoft Hyper-V offers a powerful, integrated alternative, especially when paired with technologies like Windows Failover Cluster, Storage Spaces Direct, and Azure Local.
Whether you are evaluating Hyper-V or already running it in your environment, this workshop highlights capabilities many teams are not fully utilizing today.
In this one-hour, live session, Data Networks walks through a real-world Hyper-V environment, built on Storage Spaces Direct, so you can see exactly how it works and how it is managed.
What You'll Learn
During this sixty minute, technical walk-through, we’ll cover:
-
Hyper-V Failover Clustering in Action
✔ A live demonstration of a Hyper-V failover cluster running on Storage Spaces Direct, showing how high availability
is configured and maintained. -
Storage Spaces Direct and Azure Local
✔ How these technologies align and support a modern, hybrid-ready infrastructure. -
Managing the Environment
✔ An overview of the tools and utilities used to monitor, configure, and manage a Hyper-V environment. -
Building and Configuring Virtual Machines
✔ Where to go, what to configure, and how to optimize virtual machine setup.
-
Replication and Disaster Recovery
✔ How to set up replication between Hyper-V hosts, or Hyper-V clusters to support business continuity.
-
Hyper-V vs. VMware
✔ A straightforward comparison to help you understand differences and evaluate your current approach.
What to Expect?
- A live walk-through of a working Hyper-V environment
- Real-world configurations, not theory-heavy slides
- Clear insight into how and where to manage key settings
- Practical takeaways you can apply to your environment
Who Should Attend?
- IT Directors, CIOs, and CTOs
- Infrastructure and Systems Administrators
- Organizations currently using VMware and exploring alternatives
- Teams running Hyper-V that want to improve configuration and management
- Organizations already using Hyper-V that want to better understand clustering, replication, and management capabilities
