  1. Next generationof virtual infrastructure with Hyper-V • Juraj Sucik, Michal Kwiatek, Rafal Otto • CERN IT-IS

  2. Agenda • Experience since 2006 • New Hyper-V infrastructure • Real life use cases • What’s next • Summary 2

  3. Experience since 2006 Server Self Service Center (S3C) • Choose your server from a set of predefined images • Take resources from the pool of available HW • Available within minutes 3

  4. Requirements have evolved • New requirements identified • Flexibility of resource allocation • Higher performance • High-availability model adapted to customers • Larger scale • Efficientmanagement Source: Gartner (August 2008) 4

  5. New Hyper-V infrastructure 5

  6. New Hyper-V infrastructure CERN Virtual Infrastructure Web Interface Virtual Machine Manager Admin Console Application Management OS Maintenance Backups SOAP services Windows powershell LAN DB Microsoft VirtualMachine Manager Hyper-V Hyper-V Hyper-V Hyper-V Hyper-V 6

  7. CERN Virtual Infrastructure • Demo 7

  8. SOAP method calls • Request VM • Delete VM • Start VM • Stop VM • Save State of VM • Import / Export • Snapshots Virtual Machine Save State Snapshots Import / Export Request (Create) / Delete Start / Stop 8

  9. Real life use cases • Video streaming for LHC First Beam Day • 6 virtual machines needed for ~1 week • Terminal Servers for Engineering Apps • Oracle Application servers • CERN Media Archive • CERN Alerter web server • Physical server with 2xCPU, 4GB RAM • Upgrade necessary because of OS driver issue • Virtual server set up “on demand” • Resources limited to 1xCPU, 2 GB RAM • Etc, etc. 9

  10. What’s next • IT-IS group • Install more hardware to satisfy the demand • Hypervisor 2.0 in Windows 2008 R2 • Enhanced support for Linux • Further performance improvements • High availability (live migration, failover) • Power efficiency (core parking) • Easier management • Expected later this year, RC1 since May’09 10

  11. Summary • Easy to use self-service • Service in production since 2006 • Latest edition based on Hyper-V • Improved performance • Efficient resource allocation • Flexibility of hardware provisioning • Ease of management • Web interface, SOAP, SCVMM • Integration with IT services • Network database, update distribution, backups, etc. • High-availability model adapted to customer requirements 11
