Windows Server 2012
Windows Server 2012 seems to be a hot commodity in the realm of enterprise IT. A number of vendors of mutual support system of product flashes and Microsoft.
Dell, for example, users of the 12th generation server Dell PowerEdge called dynamic virtualization can optimize the infrastructure provided by Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V to scale and secure the workload.
This includes searching for cost-effectiveness in virtualization in data centers, manage their infrastructure efficiently, as well as build environment for cloud.
"Thoroughly made for virtualization with the large memory support and increased throughput IO, 12th-generation server PowerEdge allows customers to maximize virtualization platform comprehensively offered in Windows Server 2012," said Dell.
"This will help the IT administrator to create the dynamic data center and cloud infrastructure that provides loads of work, network and storage solutions that are flexible," he said.
Dell PowerEdge servers ability to highlight in particular the M420 and C6220 claimed capable of delivering on node density that spur the growth of virtualization scalability of the environment of Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V.
"The management server on Dell PowerEdge, Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) 7 with Lifecycle Controller simplifies hardware management, and integrate seamlessly with the System Center 2012 offering efficiency and increased productivity within the IT virtual and physical Windows Server 2012," continued United States origin it vendor.
Windows Server 2012 and Dell PowerEdge customers mentioned can also implement, monitor, update and maintain Dell servers automatically on your physical and virtual environment through integrating OpenManage with Microsoft System Center.
"PowerEdge can be updated with performance up to 10 times faster and in 81 percent fewer steps from HP servers compared with the OS of multi-vendor environment and hypervisor," pungkasnya.
In addition to Dell, support for Windows Server 2012 also flows from Hitachi Data Systems (HDS). Origin of Japan suggested Vendor, Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform (VSP), Hitachi Unified Storage (HUS), and Hitachi Compute Blade has now has full certification to support Windows Server 2012.
Operating system Windows Server 2012 so that customers provide infrastructure and Microsoft could distribute HDS and became the host for Microsoft Windows and Linux applications.
"Windows Server 2012 is one of the most significant releases of Microsoft up to now," said Jim Beckman, Vice President Alliances Hitachi Data Systems.
"With the HDS technology solutions and Microsoft Windows Server 2012, customers are now able to place and manage Microsoft application infrastructure environment that is always-on, always ready. Our customers have ready-to-launch Windows Server 2012 on their production IT environment with plans to expand the scale for both the Microsoft Windows and Linux applications, "he added.
Windows Server 2012 mentioned have set the Foundation for the application of Hitachi solution on top of Microsoft's Private Cloud Fast Track. These solutions combining the computing and storage Hitachi solution with the appropriate network infrastructure industry standards as well as Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V and System Center software.
These solutions offer integration with System Center Virtual Machine Manager virtual machine migration with 2012 live and transparent. They also support the computing and storage resources to provision virtual machines quickly with full support for System Center Orchestrator 2012.
The scalability of Microsoft Windows Server 2012 clustering with Hyper-V and Microsoft allow HDS provide support up to 64 stain and thousands of virtual machines in the cloud solution namely Hitachi, solution infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS) to answer the challenges of the current request.
Microsoft applications can migrate between virtual machines that were installed in the data center are the same or different data centers with minimum disruption, thus enabling application support for critical applications on x 86 platforms.
Microsoft Indonesia officially employs software to Internet servers, Windows Server 2012, in Jakarta, Wednesday (19/39), after being launched globally on September 4.
Windows Server 2012 is an update of the previous software, Windows Server 2008 R2 version.
"The differences to its predecessor Windows Server 2012 lies in scalability by supporting up to 64 virtual processors and RAM for one terabit," said Microsoft Indonesia President Director, Andreas Diantoro.
The other difference, according to Andreas, i.e. the elasticity in the software accommodates a wide range of applications in the cloud computing (cloud) in addition to the ease of when it will be moved from one server to another server.
Andreas says Windows Server 2012 sweep users from various sectors of the industry that requires data center including government agencies such as the Central Board of Statistics, Ministry of communication and Informatics, Directorate General of Taxes or the Ministry of finance.
Although he does not mention in detail the target number of users Windows Server 2012 in Indonesia, Andreas says users of Windows 2008 has reached a thousand partners.
Microsoft mentions Windows Server 2012 with Windows Azure provides a cloud computing data center for private as well as public.
