Microsoft Hyper-V and Virtual Server Microsoft's Hyper-V hypervisor has caught up fast with VMware, XenServer and other virtualization platforms, and many organizations have turned to Microsoft's low-cost hypervisor as their virtualization choice. In this section, you will find news analysis, research and tutorials on getting started with and installing Hyper-V as well as in-depth tutorials on using Hyper-V and management tools such as Virtual Machine Manager, PowerShell scripts, as well as find comparisons of Hyper-V with other virtualization platforms on the basis of performance, reliability, ease of use, cost, and virtualization management concerns. We provide evaluations of architectural decisions to make when deploying Hyper-V, how virtual machine security is affected, and how Hyper-V works with other third-party virtualization management tools as compared with VMware, XenServer and more.
