Microsoft Bare Metal Hyper-V Server released

October 2nd, 2008

Microsoft have announced the release of their free bare metal hypervisor called “Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008″.  I thought they might have marketed it with a different name as I can see some confusion arising there.

On first look at the features table it looks a little limited but to be honest it’s no more so than ESX 3i is on it’s own, Hoping to get a look at this sometime today at which point I should be in a better position to comment.

It’s available for download at the following location

To compliment the flurry of release activity at  Microsoft they have announced their virtualisation exams which you can find out about at the following address.
