Percent of current virtualization users, by segment

75% of the market

58% are less than 30% virtualized 75% expect to be more than 30% virtualized in 24 months

56% have less than 250 virtual machines deployed


5/22

Factors Preventing Organizations from Using Virtualization


Collaboration and Training Best Practices

Application Performance Lack of Understanding

Virtual Stall

Virtualization technology is not the barrier to success

2011 Exchange Results Summary


20,000 simulated Exchange 2010 users on a single server in four Hyp

R2 VMs with Jetstress

Exchange tested solutions from 9,000 through 32,000 mailboxes

The 32,000 mailbox solution was deployed in 36 Hyper-V R2 VMs othree sites

Why This Matters

A single Hyper-V R2 enabled server scaled to meet the IO performance requirements20,000 Exchange 2010 mailboxes.

Exchange Tested Solutions virtualized with Hyper-V R2 met the scalability andperformance requirements of 9,000 through 32,000 highly available Exchange 2010mailboxes.

The performance, scalability, and low overhead of Hyper-V R2 can be used to reducecosts and improve the manageability, flexibility, and availability of consolidatedExchange applications.

The Bigger Truth
