Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Installation and Configuration Guide

The best Hyper-V book you will find

I started flipping through this book while sitting in my manager's office and it seemed like every page contained at least one piece of information I'm really glad made it into writing; it didn't take long before I wound up buying and reading the entire book cover to cover. The authors are clear and concise but include a touch of humor. Furthermore, there are numerous real world examples, links to references, and best practice guides; I'm fairly certain a new Hyper-V user could use this book alone to get a system up and running. My favorite thing, however, is that the information is more focused on WHY than HOW -- this book would be useful to any Hyper-V user on virtually any version of Hyper-V because it explains why you would make certain decisions rather than walking through a step by step series of screen shots. While components may fall out of date, the high level concepts are relevant to previous versions and will (most likely) stay relevant. *Disclaimer: I do work at Microsoft on Hyper-V and the above doesn't reflect Microsoft's opinions in any way, just my own :) Read more
