Quick Migration
Hyper-V enables you to rapidly migrate a running virtual machine from
one physical host system to another with minimal downtime, leveraging
familiar high-availability capabilities of Windows Server and System
Center management tools.
Virtual Machine Snapshots
Hyper-V provides the ability to take snapshots of a running virtual
machine so you can easily revert to a previous state, and improve the
overall backup and recoverability solution.
Scalability
With support for multiple processors and cores at the host level and
improved memory access within virtual machines, you can now vertically
scale your virtualization environment to support a large number of
virtual machines within a given host and continue to leverage quick
migration for scalability across multiple hosts.
Extensibility
Standards-based Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
interfaces and APIs in Hyper-V enable independent software vendors
and developers to quickly build custom tools, utilities, and enhancements
for the virtualization platform.

Key Facts
Microsoft kept the back-end database on physical boxes, but moved 100%
of its IIS7 frond-ends on Hyper-V RC0 VMs with 4 virtual CPUs and 10GB
RAM.
The virtualization hosts (no mention of the brand obviously) are powered by
2 Intel quad-core CPUs and 32GB RAM (2GB are reserved for the Windows
Server 2008 parent partition).
Results
Hyper-V CPU overhead (as measured by the parent partition utilization) was
5% to 6% with linear progression as the number of requests increased.
CPU oversubscription (three four-processor VMs on an eight-processor
physical server) resulted in 3% lower overall performance per physical server
based on overall requests per second per 1 percent CPU.
Requests per second per 1% CPU performance of MSDN over the previous
physical server platform improved. This demonstrates to us the viability of
efficient consolidation from dedicated older physical servers to shared
virtualized platforms.
Physical MSDN handled 21% more requests per second per 1% CPU than
virtualized MSDN.
