Agenda: Linux and Open Source at Microsoft

Microsoft Linux

Azure IaaS has runLinux VMs since“day 1” in 2013

Many enterprises and service providersrun Linux as a guest on Hyper-V

Microsoft is committed to Linux and open source

Today

Linux is a real business for Microsoft

Linux drivers for Hyper-V available since 2010

… and we’re been in a long open source journey!

Linux and open source are a fundamental part of how we do business

System Center manages hundreds of thousands of Linux/UNIX servers

System Center has managed Linux andUNIX servers since 2009

25% of IaaS VMs in Azure are Linux

Microsoft “gets it”

You operate Windows workloads

You operate Linux and open source workloads

You just want them both to run great

You want the simplicity of unified systems management

“Winux” datacenter investments

Huge and continuing investments in compute, networking, and storageInformed by our Azure public cloud experience

Ships as Windows Server, Hyper-V, and Azure Stack

That’s our core datacenter infrastructure

Foundation for Azure as well

Almost everything we’re doing accrues to both Windows and Linux

Sophisticated Linux guest features

Standard operational interfaces

Microsoft-written Linux Integration Services (LIS) for full Linux guest integration

Linux systems management: today

Largest customers managing up to 10,000 Linux and UNIX servers

25+% of OpsMgr installations are monitoring Linux and UNIX in addition to Windows

ConfigMgr penetration growing quickly

“We are running SC OpsMgr to monitor

our Windows environment and now we are going to try to implement

UNIX/Linux as well.“

“We currently have SC OpsMgr

monitoring our Windows servers

and our UNIX team would like to leverage OpsMgr for their servers.”

“Having first-class Linux support in our Hyper-V host

servers gives us great flexibility … within a

common private-cloud infrastructure.”

”What’s nice is that we can manage our entire

environment, including Linux-based virtual machines, from

System Center.”

“Instead of maintaining two virtualization environments [for Linux and Windows], we

can maintain just one, Hyper-V.”
