1. VirtualizationWhat Does The Future Hold? John Bristowe (john.bristowe@microsoft.com) Senior Developer Evangelist, Microsoft Canada www.bristowe.com www.twitter.com/jbristowe

2. Understanding Virtualization One of the hottest trends in information technology today Microsoft virtualization technologies primarily focus on three areas: Hardware virtualization Presentation virtualization Application virtualization

3. History of Virtualization 1980s: IBM logical partition (LPAR) on mainframes; ultimately abandoned when x86 desktops arrived 1999: VMWare releases first x86 virtualization 2003: Microsoft acquires Connectix; releases VPC 2004 and Virtual Server 2005 2006: Microsoft partners with Xen to create first true x64 hypervisor (Xen & Hyper-V)

7. Virtualization Scenarios Business Continuity Server Consolidation Test and Development Dynamic Datacenter

8. Physical Server Constraints Underutilized hardware Excessive power consumption Expensive space across datacenter and branch offices

9. Server Consolidation Minimize capital expenditures Reduce Operating Costs Improve Service Levels

14. Test and Lab Manager Manual Testing for the 21st century Plan, Manage and Execute tests from one place Virtual Test Environments Reduce the overhead of maintaining physical test environments Share Virtual environments between team members Web and Load Testing Know your code is ready for the big time Measure performance under real time load conditions and ensure that your applications are ready for release Development and Testing

16. What Else? Application Compatibility XP Mode & MED-V Remote Applications TS Remote Apps, Citrix Streaming Applications App-V, Citrix Virtual Desktops VDI or Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

17. Cloud-Based Computing Virtual Machines Example: Rackforce Co-lo servers, hosted virtual machines, etc. Evolving implementations Windows Azure, Amazon S3, etc. Evolving ways of management (i.e. System Center) Evolving on-premise integration
