Your datacenter reality

Microsoft “gets it”

You operate Windows workloads

You operate Linux workloads

You just want them both to run great

You want the simplicity of unified systems managementSlide5

Running and Deploying LinuxSlide9

Integration Services (IS): What Are They?

Hyper-V presents synthetic devices to the guest

OS

Synthetic devices seen by the guest OS are the same, regardless of the real hardware under Hyper-V

Guest

OS needs drivers for these synthetic devices

Just like an OS needs drivers for devices it sees when running on real hardware

Integration Services

=

guest OS

drivers for

Hyper-V

They run in the guest OS so must follow the device driver model for that guest OS

Windows IS are different from Linux IS, are different from FreeBSD IS

Linux and FreeBSD integration services also include user-space daemons that interact with the driversSlide10

Key Linux vendors include LIS in their distros
