Comments on: Hyper-V R2 vs vSphere: A feature comparison http://www.vmguru.nl/wordpress/2009/12/hyper-v-r2-vs-vsphere-a-feature-comparison/ Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:01:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: drexciya http://www.vmguru.nl/wordpress/2009/12/hyper-v-r2-vs-vsphere-a-feature-comparison/comment-page-1/#comment-1504 drexciya Wed, 16 Dec 2009 15:07:47 +0000 http://www.vmguru.nl/wordpress/?p=2860#comment-1504 I think it boils down to the comparison between Citrix XenApp and Microsoft Terminal Services. The former product is superior, but has a price. Hyper-V R2 is a valid solution for certain environments. I still think Microsoft has some work to do however to get people to move from VMware. I don't like the requirement of having AD and clustering to get the functionality you need. Also both storage and networking (teaming!) need some improvement. People mention SRM, Storage VMotion already and I agree that VMware has an impressive set of additional products (for a price again). Finally there's a bit of philosophy involved. VMware makes it possible to have a completely separate virtualization platform. Microsoft however integrates the virtualization layer with the regular environment. There's no good or bad here, but it's a very personal preference. I think it boils down to the comparison between Citrix XenApp and Microsoft Terminal Services.
