Microsoft Momentum

And the market is noticing"Microsoft more than any other vendor has the ability to unify the public cloud platform with Azure and the private cloud with Windows Server"

• Rob Helm, Directions on Microsoft

“Everything in System Center and Hyper-V is designed to deliver, manage and control the quality of services, either in straight-up virtualization or via a cloud. I just don't see that in the loosely coupled framework of VMware products.”

• Aidan Finn in TechTarget article

“When you work for the enterprise, you have to choose Microsoft.”

• Alexi Venneri, CMO Digital Air Strike

“Microsoft Leaps Ahead of VMware In Hybrid Cloud Management”

• John Ross CRN

“In my mission of having storage cost less than $100 per user for VDI … Server 2012 R2 [is] helping pave the way for organizations to see this as a reality.”

• Gunnar Berger, Gartner

• ESG Labs Validation: Windows Server 2012 with SQL Server 2012

• The sum of the number of transactions processed per second and the average response time for

the 10 transaction types were monitored as virtual CPUs were added from 4-64. The OLTP

workload and concurrent user counts remained constant. The number of brokerage transactions

per second scaled linearly up to 64 virtual processors.

Linear Performance & Scale with SQL

Linear Performance & Scale with Exchange• ESG Labs Validation: Windows Server 2012 with Exchange Server 2013

• An Exchange 2013 infrastructure deployed within twelve Hyper-V virtual machines, running on a single physical server, supported the I/O requirements of up to 48,000 simulated users, while average database read response times ranged between 5.02 and 15.31 milliseconds, well below the Microsoft recommended limit of 20 milliseconds.
