In this Showcast Didier and Carsten are playing with a Hyper-converged Storage Spaces Direct System with Windows Server 2016 installed. The show some crazsy performance numbers and even turn 2 of the 4 nodes off. While playing with the Cluster we see also some new Features like Distributed Storage QoS, Cluster and VM Isolation and Cluster Fairshare.
See what’s happening, bring some time the show is a bit lengthy and enjoy the video.
In this Episode Didier and I talk about some of the cool Failover Cluster improvements in Windows Server 2016 that Didier will present at the Cloud & Datacenter Conference Germany in May. We also talk a bit about that Conference and the Speaker Lineup that is in Didier words amazing. After that we tell you about an experience we both share that was truly mind blowing.
I hope you have fun with this Episode of the Hyper-V Amigos Showcast.

My friend Didier and I were two weeks in the US to attend two great events – the VeeamON Conference at the end of October in Las Vegas and the Microsoft MVP Summit at the beginning of November in Redmond. Between those two exiting weeks Didier and I visited the Grand Canyon. Boy is this hole in the ground impressive. So we decided to make a video in front of this beautiful nature and of course talk about technical stuff. Because the view is so great we went to three different places to get the different angles on the Canyon.
Listen to us talking about VeeamON (till 9:17) and different Windows Server 2016 features. We wish you as much fun as we had making this video.
The Hyper-V Amigos 🙂
In this Episode Didier and Carsten do not show great technology instead the talk about their year 2014. They share their highlights as speaker, talk about great events, the last MVP Summit in Redmond and even share some insights (like how Carsten broke his nose).
We hope you enjoy this showcast (or should it be called talkcast)
