Video Description

Windows Server Hyper-V lets you build a virtualized server computing environment that enables you to create and manage virtual machines. This improves the efficiency of your computing resources and frees up your hardware resources. Hyper-V is now a serious contender in the hypervisor space, and it's time for you to learn it.

This course will help you master the fundamentals and core components of Hyper-V. You will start by walking through the basics of installing and configuring Hyper-V 2016. Then you will learn in detail about the Hyper-V Manager, networks, and memory virtualization. You will gain an in-depth knowledge of CPU and storage virtualization. You will also get to grips with advanced topics such as hybrid cloud setup with Azure, PowerShell, and Hyper-V security.

By the end of this course, you will be an intermediate-level system administrator, confident in your mastery of the basic functioning of Hyper-V 2016, and you will find it extremely easy to implement server virtualization using Hyper-V 2016.

Style and approach

This step-by-step learning tutorial will cover all the core virtualization techniques of Hyper-V 2016 in a practical and engaging manner.
