STORAGE Discover, classify, and allocate storage for use by the private cloud. Provide the correct storage for use with appropriate access. COMPUTE Deploy your compute resources, taking them from bare metal to fully deployed for your physical and virtualization hosts. NETWORK Abstract your complex networking infrastructure into logical networks for cloud use. Assign IP, virtual IP, and MAC addresses from pools and integrate with load balancers. CLUSTER Consolidate your fabric elements for use in a private cloud.

VMM | High-performance live migration Accelerate live migration performance with compression or RDMA-capable network adapters For <10GBit network connectivity, live migration compression delivers superior performance – 2x acceleration for most workloads For >10GBit networks, Remote direct memory access (RDMA) offload delivers the highest performance with low CPU utilization and transfer speeds of up to 56Gb/s Windows Server 2012 R2 supports RoCE, iWARP and Infiniband RDMA solutions Live migration with RDMA

Shared-nothing live migration Benefits: Increase flexibility of virtual machine placement. Increase administrator efficiency. Reduce downtime for migrations across cluster boundaries.
