According to Azaleos' Tuesday announcement, Exchange virtualization can consolidate server and storage resources, simplify administration, and streamline high availability and disaster recovery. Already offering support for VMware ESX, Azaleos' Exchange support gives customers the choice of either virtualization platform, or even a physical server.
"In our tests with Exchange Server, Microsoft Hyper-V Server performed on par with the much more mature VMware ESX Server, which is impressive," Azaleos vice president of product management Scott Gode said in a statement. "Adding support for Hyper-V to our OneServer portfolio allows customers to choose from a broader set of virtual and physical platform options for our OneStop services based on their technical and financial needs."
According to a statement from Azaleos, "Microsoft Exchange Server typically does not require the full processing capabilities of an entire server, [making it] ideally suited for virtualization where its needs can be combined with other workloads." This is also an early example of how email hosts can adopt Microsoft's Hyper-V virtualization capabilities.
Azaleos, however, acknowledges that Exchange virtualization is not appropriate for all environments as a communications infrastructure backbone. The company explains such instances in a whitepaper entitled "Virtualizing Exchange" that outlines the benefits, challenges, and disadvantages of deploying Exchange on a virtual machine.
Managed services available on OneServer Virtual Edition include real-time monitoring and reporting system ViewXchange; remote command and control service ManageXchange; turnkey mobile device management and monitoring solution MobileXchange; anti-virus and anti-spam service ProtectXchange; disaster recovery service RestoreXchange; and archival and storage service ArchiveXchange. | Reads: 1040 | Category: General | Source: TheWHIR : Web Host Industry Reviews
