Hi All,
This is my first post here, i am a technical support and developer for one of hospital information system, because its application for healthcare so this application demands performance, reliability and high availability, after a long discussion with my
team, we decided to deploy our application and database on Hyper-V VM's. But the problem is we never deploy this apps in VM's before, we usually deploy on physical server, here are our scenario:
for VM1 : Application server (Windows Server 2012 R2), our application would be optimal serve 100 users running on 1 processor with 6 cores (if deploy on physical server) and 16GB memory.
for VM2 : Database server (SQL Server 2012 R2), usually we use 4 to 6 cores (if deploy on physical server) with 16GB memory.
the questions:
1. Can someone help me with the Hyper-V VM's calculation or configuration regarding computing power for host and guest? like how much vCPU? Dinamyc Memory? (we intended using Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 as hypervisor)
2. What if i want to use fail-over cluster ? does our fail-over must be on VM's too?
3. For SQL Server on VM, which one more impact on performance, assign a lot of vCPU or memory?
4. Can someone suggest me the hardware requirements for those scenarios?
Thank you for the help.
Regards,
Mahdi.
