Windows Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 Beta
Right after Windows 7 beta now the beta version of Windows Server 2008 R2 is available too. For links see my previous post.
At the same time Windows Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 Beta – what a mouthful – is available too. So no better time to check out the new and enhanced features of the standalone virtualization server from Microsoft. Here are some of the reasons why:
- Support for Failover clustering
- Live Migration support
- Improved memory and CPU support
- Updated config utility
Find out details about these and other features via the Hyper-V Server homepage.
