September's PIG: Windows Server 2012 High Availability Features with Luke Notley

We're changing the format slightly this month to revitalise the user group. We've had many people ask when we're running this again so its time to kick things off again. We now have some great support from the local Microsoft team in Perth so hopefully we can get this community off its bootstraps.

This month Luke Notley will be presenting the 2 sessions he gave at TechED Australia on the Gold Coast last week. 

Session 1 : The Path to Continuous Availability with Windows Server 2012

In IT organizations, there’s only one thing more critical than information—and that’s ensuring access to that information whenever it is needed. Today’s organizations simply cannot afford system failures or maintenance to cause downtime in any area. That’s why Windows Server 2012 includes enhancements that not only protect data but maximize availability from the foundational layers of the storage stack all the way up to the application and beyond. Windows Server 2012 goes beyond high availability with a versatile array of capabilities that are flexible enough to address availability needs under a wide variety of scenarios. Whether your organization is small or large, whether your environment is heterogeneous or not, Windows Server 2012 capabilities can help you lead your organization down the path towards continuous availability.  

Session 2 : Guest Clustering and VM Monitoring in Windows Server 2012 

In Windows Server 2012 there will be new ways to monitor application health state and have recovery inside of a virtual machine. This session details the new VM Monitoring feature in Windows Server 2012 as well as discusses Guest Clustering and changes in Windows Server 2012 (such as virtual FC), along with pros and cons of when to use each. 

We're going to have some networking and drinks before we kick off the sessions so we hope you can make it.

Date: Thursday 20th September 2012.

Drinks from 5pm

Presentation starts 5.45pm til 7:00pm
