Real World Deployment and Management Skills in Two Days
Hardware virtualization is a very hot topic in the IT world. It should be hot. Major savings can result from implementing virtualization in your IT environment. Savings of money, time, energy and resources - but you need to know how to get it right!
If you are operating in a Microsoft environment, you have a great virtualization option at hand: Hyper-V. You don’t have to spend thousands of additional dollars to benefit from virtualization. We’ll show you how in this two day, hands-on workshop. Go beyond the Microsoft install recommendations, you’ll have the know how and skills to confidently create a better producing virtual environment than you expected and you’ll cover it in a real-word class, designed to address the needs of a less than perfect environment.
These are the Installation, Management, & Operational Skills You Need:
Microsoft’s Hyper-V virtualization product has a lot to offer. Know how to adapt its capabilities to your environment; fine tuning, configuring, while taking other outside factors into consideration. With today’s economy, financial limitations and concerns, you can enjoy better performance with less resource. Hyper-V is a smart choice when you have it available to you. Take advantage of it.
Hands-on, you’ll cover…
- Installing Hyper-V — live in class
- Configuring Windows and Linux Virtual machines
- Securing the Virtual Infrastructure
- Implementing Centralized Management
This program will examine, hands-on, the real world applications. From the basic install, to performance measurement to management best practices. You will have the complete picture. This class is not conducted in a Microsoft vacuum. You need to understand how Hyper-V will interact with systems you have in place. There are no perfect environments Understand how Hyper-V might interact if you’re employing services such as VMware. There’s a lot to know and a lot of decisions to make – in just two days working in a hands-on environment, you’ll handle Hyper-V with confidence.
