New Hyper-V Case Study (MLS Property Information Network)
A new Hyper-V case study was published late last week. In this study they also employed the Sanbolic Melio FS clustered file system – which if you haven’t looked it is absolutely worth looking at (it’s really cool). Using this file system you can place many VM’s on a single LUN which is shared across many nodes of a Hyper-V cluster – thus eliminating the one LUN per VM minimum recommended (effetely required to provide full failover functionality) by Hyper-V.
Some great quotes:
Virtualization frees the business to grow. We have been able to achieve a dynamic IT infrastructure and can almost double computing capacity on demand across the enterprise, which is huge.

The VMware solution would have required a $160,000 licensing fee, which was 30 percent of our budget for the entire solution.

With Hyper-V you can deliver consistent availability. We can now give our customers a pretty solid guarantee of 100 percent uptime without breaking the bank.
