It covered a number of things with different speakers, cloud, Windows 8, Windows Server 8, and I spoke for around an hour on System Center 2012 and Windows Server 8 Hyper-V.&#160; The audience was mostly a manager\/sales audience so we kept more to the business side of things, but some tech just proves the argument, and I had a feeling that nothing would do that better than <a href=\"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/?p=12147\" target=\"_blank\">Hyper-V Replica<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re presenting to this kind of audience, it\u2019s one thing to show them a new product they can sell, and that will get some interest\/traction.&#160; But if you can show them a whole new service that they can develop and use to do develop yet another service, and be able to sell this to the breadth audience that hears way too much about Fortune1000 tech, then you really have a winner.&#160; And that\u2019s Hyper-V Replica:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A DR replication solution built into Hyper-V, at no extra cost, designed for small\/medium businesses with commercial broadband <\/li>\n<li>Replicate from host-host, host-cluster, cluster-host, or cluster-cluster. <\/li>\n<li>Replicate office to office, data centre to data centre, branch office to HQ, or customer to hosting provider (which could be a managed IT services company with some colo hosted rack space) \u2026 and maybe use that as an entry point into a cloud\/IaaS solution for SMEs. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"left\">And that\u2019s the hook there.&#160; Most MSFT partners have experience with s\/w based replication in the past.&#160; It\u2019s troublesome, and often assumes lots of low latency bandwidth and a 3rd witness site.&#160; Not so with Hyper-V Replica, as I demonstrated in this video:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FQZZ7B0Iwgw\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Of all the stuff I\u2019ve presented in the last 2 weeks, Hyper-V Replica was the one that caused the most buzz, and rightfully so in my opinion.&#160; It\u2019s an elegant design; the genius is the \u201csimplicity\u201d of it.&#160; It should prove to be reliable, and perfect for the audience it\u2019s being aimed at.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom: 0px;
