3 ALWAYS ON, ENTERPRISE-CLASS FEATURES ON LESS EXPENSIVE HARDWARE ALWAYS UP SERVICES IMPROVED PERFORMANCE AND MORE CHOICE THROUGH INDUSTRY INNOVATION Storage Spaces Application storage support through SMB 3.0 Offloaded Data Transfers (ODX) Virtual Fibre Channel for Hyper-V Data Deduplication Server Message Block (SMB) Direct Windows Cluster in a Box Windows Storage Server CONTINUOUS APPLICATION AVAILABILITY SIMPLIFIED MANAGEABILITY File system enhancements SMB Transparent Failover Online backup Management options Cluster-Aware Updating (CAU) SMB Multichannel High availability with iscsi and NFS Unified storage management 3

4 ENTERPRISE-CLASS FEATURES ON LESS EXPENSIVE HARDWARE Physical or virtualized deployments Integrated with other Windows Server 2012 capabilities Windows Virtualized Storage Physical Storage File Server Administration Console Failover Clustering Cluster Shared Volume Storage Pool Windows Application Server or File Server Hyper-V NTFS NFS Storage Pool SMB Multichannel SMB Direct Windows Storage Mgmt. Storage Space Storage Space Storage Space Virtualization of storage with Storage Pools and Storage Spaces Storage resilience and availability with commodity hardware Resiliency and data redundancy through n-way mirroring (clustered or unclustered) or parity mode (unclustered) Utilization optimized through thin and trim provisioning and enclosure awareness Integration with other Windows Server 2012 capabilities Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and Serial AT Attachment (SATA) interconnects (Shared) SAS or SATA 4

6 ENTERPRISE-CLASS FEATURES ON LESS EXPENSIVE HARDWARE Windows Virtualized Storage Physical Storage Hyper-V Cluster File Server Cluster SAN RAID Array Storage Pool SMB Single Logical Server \\Foo\Share Single File System Namespace Cluster Shared Volumes RAID Array Storage Pool Microsoft SQL Server Storage Space Storage Space Storage Space RAID Array Highly available, shared data store for SQL Server databases and Hyper-V workloads Increased flexibility, and easier provisioning and management Ability to take advantage of existing network infrastructure No application downtime for planned maintenance or unplanned failures with failover clustering Highly available scale-out file server Built-in encryption support 6

7 CONTINUOUS APPLICATION AVAILABILITY Automatic detection and use of multiple network connections between SMB client and server SMB client SMB server Helps server applications be resilient to network failure Transparent Failover with recovery of network failure if another connection is unavailable File copy NIC NIC File copy Improved throughput Bandwidth aggregation through NIC Teaming Multiple nodes/cpus for network processing with RSS-capable network adapters NIC NIC Automatic configuration with very little administrative overhead 7

8 Windows Server file server cluster CONTINUOUS APPLICATION AVAILABILITY High-performance, continually available fileshares for business critical applications \\foo\share Failover transparent to server applications with zero downtime and with only a small I/O delay Support for planned moves, load balancing, operating system restart, unplanned failures, and client redirection (scale-out only) Resilient for file and directory operations All servers involved should have Windows Server 2012 \\foo1\share1 \\foo2\share1 8

9 CONTINUOUS APPLICATION AVAILABILITY Reduces server downtime and user disruption by orchestration of cluster node updates Maintains service availability without impacting cluster quorum Detects required updates and moves workloads off nodes for updates Uses Windows Update Agent or extensible plug-in U Third-party plug-in for updates Windows Server Cluster Current Workload 9
