VIRTUALIZATION AND WINDOWS SERVER 2012

Abstract

Purpose. Comparison solutions for creating virtual machines aimed to run operating system Windows Server 2012 R2, their main features and performance. Methodology. We have applied experiments comparing several most popular virtualization tools through which virtual machines run operating system Windows Server 2012 R2. We measured performance of created virtual machines, such as CPU test, disk performance test, memory and 2D graphics test, which allowed us to range performance of tested virtual tools. Results. We have created virtual machines using following virtualization tools: Microsoft Hyper-V, VMWare Workstation, Oracle VritualBox. Also, we tested performance of physical machine running tested operation system. We provided performance measurements using NovaBench and PassMark software bundles. We provided two-phases experiment: firstly we measured the overall system performance using NovaBench software to get the basic insight on performance. Secondly, using PassMark Performance Test software we measured CPU performance, Memory performance, Disk performance and 2D Graphics performance. As expected, the physical machine was the most powerful among the all machines. Among the virtual machines, the best overall score received Hyper-V which appears to be the most effective virtualization tools for virtualizing the Windows Server 2012 R2. Originality. For the first time, we have carried out the integrated research on operation of different virtualization tools for running operating system on the example of Windows Server 2012 R2 operating system. Practi-cal value. Research results could be used during construction virtual system aiming to achieve their best performance.
