Build the Dynamic Datacenter in Windows Server 2008
A dynamic datacenter is one where all resources are divided into two
categories:
• Resource Pools consist of the hardware resources in your datacenter.
These hardware resources are made up of the server hardware, the
network switches, and the power and cooling systems that make the
hardware run.
• Virtual Service Offerings consist of the workloads that each
hardware resource supports. Workloads are virtual machines that run on
top of a hypervisor—a code component that exposes hardware resources
to virtualized instances of operating systems.
In this datacenter, the hardware resources in the resource pool are
host systems that can run between 10 and 20 guest virtual machines
that make up the virtual service offerings.
