  1. VIR308 What's New in Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V, Part 1 Jeff Woolsey Windows Server & Cloud Microsoft Corporation

  2. Session Objectives and Takeaways • What’s New In Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Part 1 • Scale Up Workloads • Platform Resiliency • Storage • Automation/Manageability • A little surprise… • What’s New In Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Part 2 • Networking • Clustering • VM Mobility • Linux as a Guest • We can’t cover everything in two sessions • There’s simply too much content. Pointers to other sessions too…

  3. Helping You Cloud Optimize Your Business Public Identity ▪ Virtualization ▪ Management ▪ Development Commontechnologies Private The Microsoft Hybrid Cloud

  4. Building your own cloud just got a lot easier with Windows Server 2012.

  5. Cloud Considerations

  6. Cloud Considerations • Mission Critical, Scale Up Workloads • Storage • Costs • Complexity • Security • Continuous Availability • VM Mobility • Networking • Multi-Tenancy, Security • IP Address Management • QoS • Automation/Manageability

  7. Scale Up Workloads

  8. Mission Critical Workloads Scale Live Migration should just work • Scale isn’t just more virtual processors • No tradeoffs Performance must increase with cores Virtualize workloads considered “non-virtualizable” • Maximize your investment • Let’s build the best cloud together

  9. Scaling up: Physical NUMA NUMA node 1 NUMA node 2 • NUMA (Non-uniform memory access) • Helps hosts scale up the number of cores and memory access • Partitions cores and memory into “nodes” • Allocation and latency depends on the memory location relative to a processor • High performance applications detect NUMA and minimize cross-node memory access Processors Memory Host NUMA

  10. Scaling up: Physical NUMA NUMA node 1 NUMA node 2 Processors • This is optimal… • Memory allocation and thread allocations within the same NUMA node • Memory populated in each NUMA node Memory NUMA node 3 NUMA node 4 Processors Memory Host NUMA

  11. Scaling up: Physical NUMA NUMA node 1 NUMA node 2 Processors • This isn’t optimal… • System is imbalanced • Memory allocation and thread allocations across different NUMA nodes • Multiple node hops • NUMA Node 2 has an odd number of DIMMS • NUMA Node 3 doesn’t have enough • NUMA Node 4 has no local memory (worst case) Memory NUMA node 3 NUMA node 4 Processors Memory Host NUMA

  12. Scaling Up: Guest NUMA NUMA node 1 NUMA node 2 NUMA node 3 NUMA node 4 • Guest NUMA • Presenting NUMA topology within VM • Guest operating systems & apps can make intelligent NUMA decisions about thread and memory allocation • Guest NUMA nodes are aligned with host resources • Policy driven per host – best effort, or force alignment vNUMA node A vNUMA node A vNUMA node B vNUMA node B

  13. Hyper-V Scale ComparisonMassive Scale in the Box

  14. Storage

  15. Your input on Storage Leverage storage array capabilities Native access to SANs from VMs • Maximize your investment • No tradeoffs Help reduce the cost of storage Highly Scalable Virtual Disks • For workloads that don’t require a SAN • Big data is here

  16. Dynamic, High Performance Storage • Live Storage Migration • Virtual Fiber Channel • Support for File Based Storage on SMB 3.0 • New VHDX Format • Online MetaOperations • Live VHD Merge • Live New Parent • Native 4K Disk Support • Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) LEARN MORE [WSV410] Continuously Available File Server Under the Hood LEARN MORE [VIR301] Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Storage

  17. Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) Token Offload Write Offload Read Token Token Virtual Disk Virtual Disk Actual Data Transfer Intelligent Storage Array

  18. Hyper-V ODX Support • Secure Offload data transfer • Fixed VHD/VHDX Creation • Dynamic VHD/VHDX Expansion • VHD/VHDX Merge • Live Storage Migration • Just one example… ~3 Minutes <1 Second!

  19. Hyper-V Storage No Limits & Dynamic

  20. Securing Data at Rest

  21. I have good processes in place, but what other safeguards can I use to protect my data? So You’re a Building a Cloud…

  22. Server Hard Disks Appear on eBayReal Case : A US Power Company • The Company had processes in place to either physically destroy drives or scrub them to U.S. DOD standards • Degaussing • Overwriting the data with a minimum of three specified patterns • Data on drives used in servers, contained: • Proprietary company information such as memos, correspondence • Customers data (460,000+) & Confidential employee information According to Gartner about 1/3 companies use outside firms to dispose of PCs & Servers

  23. HIPAA Breach: Stolen Hard Drives • March 2012: Large Medical Provider in Tennessee paying $1.5 million to the US Dept. Health & Human Services • Theft of 57 hard drives that contained protected health information (ePHI) for over 1 million individuals • Secured by: • Security Patrols • Biometric scanner • Keycard scanner • Magnetic locks • Keyed locks “71% of health care organizations have suffered at least one data breach within the last year” -Study by Veriphyr

  24. CriticalSafeguard for the CloudEncrypted cluster volumes • BitLocker encrypted cluster disks • Support for traditional failover disks • Support for Cluster Shared Volumes • Cluster Name Object (CNO) identity used to lock and unlock Clustered volumes • Enables physical security for deployments outside of secure datacenters • Branch office deployments • Volume level encryption for compliance requirements • Negligible (<1%) performance impact

  25. High Availability

  26. Your input on High Availability VMs Need Access to Fibre Channel SANs Legacy Apps that don’t support Clustering • We have apps and data there… • Let’s improve availability of those apps too Ease integration with SAN replication/snapshotting Highly Scalable Virtual Disks Make it all work. • Big data. Enough said.

  27. Availability Enhancements • Windows NIC Teaming • Continuously Available File Server (SMB) storage • CSV 2.0 Integration with Storage Arrays for Replication & HW snapshots out of the box • Guest Clustering via Fiber Channel for HA • Support for Concurrent Live/Live Storage Migrations • Major Failover Cluster Enhancements… LEARN MORE [WSV411] Guest Clustering & VM Monitoring in Windows Server 2012

  28. Scale, Management, Policy & StorageFailover cluster • Support for 64 nodes & 4000 VMs in a Cluster • Cluster Aware Updating • Cluster Shared Volumes 2.0 • VM Failover Prioritization • Anti-Affinity VM Rules • Cluster Wide Task Scheduling • Inbox Live Migration Queuing • SMB Support • Hyper-V App Monitoring • Guest Clustering via Fiber Channel… LEARN MORE [WSV430] Cluster Shared Volumes Reborn in Windows Server 2012

  29. Guest Fiber Channel Architecture • Up to four virtual HBAs assigned to each VM • WWNs assigned to each VM • Doesn’t require re-zoning • NPIV utilized to surface VM portson the host • Works with Live Migration NPIV port(s)

  30. Complete Redundancy In the Box • Hyper-V Replica for Asynchronous Replication • CSV 2.0 Integration with Storage Arrays for Synchronous Replication Disaster Recovery • Non-Cluster Aware Apps: Hyper-V App Monitoring • VM Guest Cluster: iSCSI, Fiber Channel • VM Guest Teaming of SR-IOV NICs Application/Service Failover • Network Load Balancing & Failover via Windows NIC Teaming • Storage Multi-Path IO (MPIO) • Multi-Channel SMB I/O Redundancy • Live Migration for Planned Downtime • Failover Cluster for Unplanned Downtime Physical Node Redundancy • Windows Hardware Error Architecture (WHEA)/RAS Hardware Fault

  37. Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 SP1->2012 Customer Driven: More Features, Scale, Availability, Mobility in every release.

  38. Comparing Hyper-V & VMware No comparison really…

  39. VMware ESXi 5.0 vs MS Hyper-V Server 2012 VMware ESXi 5.0 (Free Version) Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 Scale Up to 64 VPs per VM Up to 4 TB of memory per Host RAM Up to 1 TB of memory per VM Enterprise level features included Shared Nothing Live Migration Live Storage Migration High Availability via Clustering Hyper-V Replica (Unlimited VM Replication) Storage Spaces …much more… • Scale • Limited to 4 vCPUsin VM • Host RAM limited to 32 GB • No Enterprise level features • No vMotion • No Storage vMotion • No High Availability • No Extensible Switch • No VM Replication
