Microsoft Hyper-V 2.0 and Remote Desktop Conneciton Broker Betas Released
Microsoft recently announced improvements that would be available in Hyper-V in Windows Server 2008 R2. Just last week, Microsoft released the first public beta of Windows Server 2008 R2 with all the “bells and whistles” promised for Hyper-V 2.0. Not only the promised features made it, but a few others made it as well (as pointed out by Virtualization.info):
- Live Migration
- Virtual disks hot plug
- Support for 32 logical processors
- Support for Second Level Address Translation or SLAT (usually known as Nested Page Tables or NPT)
- Support for TCP/IP Offload Engines (TOEs) and Jumbo Frames
- Extended PowerShell support (with 240 new cmdlets for hard core scripting)
- CPU Core Parking
Along with these new Hyper-V improvements, Microsoft is stepping in to the VDI market as well with its own connection broker that is part of the R2 beta as well.
