Server virtualization hypervisors and management
VMware, Microsoft's Hyper-V virtualization and Citrix Systems' XenServer present pros and cons in terms of your virtualization architecture and strategy. Whether you use a single provider or have a heterogeneous virtualized environment, these resources help parse the hype on virtualization providers' platforms, management tools, and more so you can choose the platform that makes sense for your environment – and make informed choices about migrating to a different virtualization provider. You can also learn how to install and manage hypervisors such as VMware ESX or vSphere as well as installing Citrix XenServer, Oracle VM or other virtualization technologies. And we also discuss the benefits of migrating from VMware to, say, Hyper-V and provide cost/benefit comparisons of the various virtualization vendors' technologies.
This section delves deep into the capabilities of virtualization providers' virtualization technologies and management tools. We provide news analysis, research and step-by-step tutorials on the various virtualization hypervisors and platforms and evaluate their benefits and disadvantages in terms of performance, cost, security, reliability, support, licensing considerations, and more.
