Hyper-V: Over 1 Millions IOPs from a Single VM
Industry Leading IO
Performance
• VM storage performance on par
with native
• Performance scales linearly with
increase in virtual processors
• Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V
can virtualize over 99% of the
world’s SQL Server.

Live Migration can take
advantage of high
speed networking
Live migration can stream
over multiple networks for
improved bandwidth
RDMA enables offloading
CPU resources to NIC
during live migration
Default
Limit = 100 MB/s
SMB being leveraged for VMs to access storage,
distribution from VM library, and live migration
Common
Infrastructure
Live Migration
Limit = 500 MB/s
Desire to manage bandwidth of different types of
SMB communication
Configurable SMB bandwidth limits per category
Control
Three defined SMB categories:
Default, VirtualMachine and LiveMigration
Enables hosters and
enterprises to control different
SMB traffic types

aka.ms/StorSimpleDemo
Connects On-Premises Servers to
Azure Storage in Minutes with No
Application Modification
Benefits
• Consolidates primary, archive, backup,
DR thru seamless integration with Azure
• Cloud snapshots = revolutionary speed,
simplicity and reliability for backup and
recovery
• Reduces enterprise storage TCO by 60–80%
• Storage de-duplicated, compressed and
encrypted before writing to Azure Storage.

When to choose Windows Azure Backup
Already using System Center Data
Protection Manager?
Windows Azure Backup integrates easily.
Small business or branch office?
Windows Azure Backup integrates with the
in-box Windows Server backup tool.
Suitable for any workload.
