I wanted to make blog post to re-enforce the message that Hyper-V is NOT GOING ANYWHERE!!!!!
For some reason, some people seem to believe that Hyper-V was being deprecated, discontinued or not being actively supported and that is simply not the case … AT ALL!!!!!
For example, I reference a reply from Jeff Woolsey in January 2022 from a person who is asking about the Hyper-V being discontinued:
“There are NO plans to deprecate Hyper-V Technology. Period. None. Zero. Nunca. Zilch. In fact, quite the opposite. Hyper-V is a strategic asset. Microsoft literally uses Hyper-V EVERYWHERE.“
Taken from question posted 28th January 2022:
The Future of Hyper-V
Referencing a Blog Post, again from Jeff Woolsey, about the next version of Windows Server:
Hyper-V is a strategic technology at Microsoft.
Please reread that last sentence. When I say strategic technology, I say this because Hyper-V is used throughout Microsoft in:
Hyper-V is one of the central components in Azure Stack HCI and is a Type-1 Hypervisor with industry leading performance and security.
So if anyone ever mentions to you their doubts on the future of Hyper-V, be informed and inform them.
