“Businesses are looking to reduce and manage computing costs in datacenters and across server and client computing devices,” explained David Greschler, director of integrated virtualization at Microsoft. “Virtualization software allows businesses to pool computing resources to drive down IT costs, increase IT efficiency and be more responsive to business needs. Customers are getting a better bang for their buck with the Microsoft platform and virtualization solutions because virtualization is in both the operating system and in the holistic management tools. Customers can manage IT services and a broad set of applications across the datacenter and desktops. There is less of a learning curve for customers, and it eases interoperability with existing systems.”
According to the Redmond company, whose hypervisor is a new solution on the market compared to what rivals from VMware have to offer, the recipe that makes its own solutions superior involves the integration of Hyper-V into Windows Server and offering a comprehensive management infrastructure that spans across both physical and virtualized servers. In fact, the Microsoft System Center suite allows administrators to manage not only Microsoft's own hypervisors, but also those of VMware.
“The VMware ESX solution would have cost $30,000 (U.S.) for four servers. With Microsoft, we have a service provider agreement that allows for monthly payments with no capital costs — costing us less than $1,000 over the life of the contract,” said David Straede, president and chief operating officer for Santa Barbara Web Hosting. “Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V has the core features businesses need. It’s the Windows people know, is installed just like other Windows-based applications, and works in a management console that IT staff are already using. The ESX feature set simply doesn’t justify its additional expense.”
