Hyper-V and SCVMM 2025
Learn Microsoft enterprise virtualization using Hyper-V and SCVMM 2025.
Microsoft Hyper-V is Microsoft’s virtualization platform, or ‘hypervisor’, which enables administrators to make better use of their hardware by virtualizing multiple operating systems to run off the same physical server simultaneously.

Course Description
System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) is a management tool for Microsoft’s Hyper-V virtualization platform. It is part of Microsoft’s System Center product suite, which also includes Configuration Manager and Operations Manager, among other tools.
SCVMM is a feature-rich and more comprehensive management tool for your Hyper-V infrastructure. If you use SCVMM, you do not need another tool to manage your Hyper-V hosts. Thus, it simplifies managing your Hyper-V infrastructure greatly.
In this training, you will learn the Microsoft enterprise virtualization using the Hyper-V in the latest Windows Server 2025. Start from installation to high availability of the VM by setting Hyper-V cluster. You will get ready to configure all data center components needed to run a virtual environment, such as virtualization servers, storage resources, and networking components, as well as provision hosts and VMs using Microsoft SCVMM.
In this training, your trainer Manoj guides you through implementing and managing Hyper-V in your datacenter. You will get knowledge of core concepts such as VM management, Checkpoints, Live Migration and replication, Failover Cluster, Storage and network switches, along with implementing and using the System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2025.
