Optimized Data Protection for Hyper-V

Industry perspective: Protecting Microsoft Applications on Hyper-V

and in integrated systems

IDC Storage


Market trends – New technologies that accelerate multi-hypervisor environments • Pervasive Microsoft applications that

require Windows VMs at a lower cost/VM compared with VMware

• Emergence of “compustorage” and compute-only appliances for server and desktop virtualization

• Newer (x86) hypervisor products from Microsoft, Oracle, IBM and Red Hat are gaining momentum – businesses are exploring change to becoming multi-hypervisor shops

• Storage initiatives by hypervisor vendors makes it easy to deploy complete solutions on any stack

• Need for specialized data protection solutions for virtualized environments


Market trends – Growth of other hypervisors

• Companies are increasingly looking to become multi-hypervisor shops

• Adoption acceleration due to all major platform vendors (Microsoft in particular) offering robust virtualization platforms giving businesses an alternative to VMware.

Q: For your open systems environment, Which hypervisors does your organization currently use?

Higher than expected use of Oracle VM could be as part of integrated/converged Oracle Exa* systems


Market Trends - Hypervisor market forecast (PB)

• Hyper-V and Xen-based platforms are catching up to VMware though VMware will still maintain lead

• VMware and Microsoft will lead the way in offer value added services for data center infrastructure

• The move from a single hypervisor environment to a multivendor hypervisor environment is proceeding at a rapid pace and will introduce an additional set of requirements, best practices, and support challenges.

• It also presents a huge opportunity for data protection

Market trends – Pervasiveness of Microsoft Applications • MS Applications dominate the

virtualized applications portfolio for many enterprises

• Most of these used to be run in ESX/vSphere environments but because of cost, many of these are moving into Hyper-V environments

• Because of their ‘ecosystem’ effect these applications are pervasive


Market trends – More Windows-based applications get protected YoY • Server and desktop virtualization will

often drive spending on data protection. • Requirements for application protection

are driving advanced software options for protecting virtual machines and incremental deployments of deduplication solutions, specifically for the virtualized environment or net-new spending on backup for desktop virtualization.

• The DP&R software market is undergoing a convergence with the distinction between backup, replications, and archive blurring.

• DP&R process will be more tightly integrated with snapshots, replicas, and the use of more efficient indexing technology to facilitate archive.


Factors that have Driven Transformation

1. Virtualization Image and Data

2. Cloud Era Storage in/for the Cloud

3. Data Growth B2D, Storage Efficiency

4. Recovery Snaps, Replicated Backup

5. Better Retrieval Items, indexing

Challenges with backing up Microsoft Apps in Hyper-V environments DP&R solutions must offer:

• Application level protection

• Protection both server and desktop virtualization environments

• Advanced software options for protecting virtual machines both for incremental and bare-metal recovery

• Deduplication and compression support

• Tighter integration with snapshots, replicas and storage management frameworks

• Use of more efficient indexing technology to facilitate archiving
