Discussion Post
High Availability or HA is one of the primary reasons to migrate servers to a virtual environment or to the Cloud. For this discussion address the following questions.
Question I: What are some of the virtualization-related services available to System Administrators to ensure high availability for important servers? Name and explain some of these features available in either Hyper-V or VMware and describe the benefits.
For example, Live Migration or vMotion, HA or Failover Cluster, DSR (Distributed Resource Scheduler), FT (fault tolerance), etc.
Question II: Provide a real-world example of how some of these HA features are being used by real companies. I suggest searching for "case studies" or "use cases" of the tools that you choose to describe.
It is NOT enough to give a generic one-sentence definition of what is HA. You should do more research (and post more details) if you wish to learn about these very important features of virtualization.
The response must include a reference list. Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
