About Hyper-V

Hyper-V is a powerful hypervisor developed by Microsoft, enabling the creation and management of virtual machines on Windows Server operating systems. It provides a wide range of advanced virtualization features like live migration, high availability, dynamic memory allocation, and integration with Microsoft Azure, making it a popular choice for enterprise environments and organizations heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem. Hyper-V’s robust performance, security, and scalability make it an ideal choice for businesses looking to optimize their virtualization and cloud infrastructure.
