I quoted you clearly saying you don't trust them.
Show me. I said "nobody", I guess technically, I would be part of nobody if it was all encompasing. Even though I truly don't have mistrust for them. I was loosely stating that many people don't trust them, and a LOT of people bash them constantly

Sounds like they are using KVM or another solution and using ideas to make improvements to Hyper-V
It's Azure Stack... running on a stripped down version of Hyper-V.
Ok.. Now why dont we get access to this super special version?

It seems like it would consume less resources than Hyper-V

It's on you to prove that has changed! You are ridiculous
I showed you proof that they didnt use Hyper-V. show me proof they do!
It's not my job to correct your lack of knowledge.
If you've been in the IT world (like you claim), Microsoft has said, for many years, Azure runs on Hyper-V.
That doesn't mean it's a version of Hyper-V that you or I can get/download.
It's not any different than Amazon running Xen, doesn't mean you get access to the exact same code!! -

No SMB will have a real use-case for Azure Stack.... at least none that warrants the cost.

It was just released last fall.

Stuff like that has to be customized... otherwise it can't run how it is... Arent' you aware of how big and geographically spread these services are? (amazon/azure/gcp/etc) Of course you can't bring something like that up out of the box. It requires incredible amounts of customization.

Take your closed mind and GTFO. If you cannot think and have a discussion instead of bash on something with no logic, I have no desire to talk to you.
You and @Obsolesce (or anybody else) haven't listed a single benefit of Hyper-V over other hypervisors. You should probably reread the OP. I'm plenty receptive... but so far there is nothing to receive.
I listed one issue I have with it, and you guys get all butt hurt and try to backpedal saying that it's not really a problem when in fact it's stupidest fucking thing ever. You are constantly recommending it and @IRJ asked why, I'm wondering why too.

Plenty of benefits have been listed. Pull your head out of your ass and open your eyes...

It's extremely usable, stable, and has excellent virtualization performance.
Yeah, your wicked solid analysis right here is useful AF. I'm totally going to switch my infrastructure over based on this.
Every modern hypervisor is all of these things, else they wouldn't exist.
JB mentioned something about easy backups. That's about it, that was the only useful post stating any benefits. To which I tried to have a civilized conversation about, but I was ignored, so yeah, I'll just pull my head out of my ass.

Why the hell would you go and change out your whole infrastructure because a hypervisor has a random benefit? They all have benefits, they all have pros and cons.
This isn't a "convince me to switch out KVM with Hyper-V" topic. That you are treating it as such totally explains your attitude in this topic... but is a completely different direction here.
Each hypervisor has it's place. You are treating it as "only use X hypervisor everywhere".
-
to be fair, nobody has listed a single benefit of using HyperV over Xen or ESXi or KVM, other than backup vendor support, which is debatable.

Each hypervisor has it's place. You are treating it as "only use X hypervisor everywhere".Not at all. A huge benefit of Hyper-V, IMO, is if you need vSAN you can use StarWind. I don't need that, so I don't use Hyper-V. If there are other scenarios where it makes the MOST sense to use Hyper-V, I'm not aware of them.
SAM mentions in his video that XS is extremely crippled and lagging behind full blown Xen which would otherwise be a top pick. I would argue that XCP-ng belongs on that short list (above KVM) because of XO. XS/XO is better than Hyper-V in every aspect that matters to me, personally, obviously not everybody and in every circumstance.
XO makes perfect sense for the SMB...

This whole topic is about:
@irj said in I think I am missing something about Hyper-V....?:
What makes Hyper-V a valid option in production environment?
A TON of valid reasons to use it in a production environment were given.
Only later in the topic... YOU seemed to have taken it the wrong way and for you was a "what benefits does Hyper-V have, that KVM does not?"
That was not the question being answered here, which is why you aren't finding the answer in this topic.
My answer was completely valid in answering the topic, and wasn't meant to answer the emotional shitfest going on in your head.
-
@obsolesce what about this part of the OP?
@irj said in I think I am missing something about Hyper-V....?:
It seems lacking compared to other virtualization options.
you should have just posted SAMs video and saved your incoherent rambling.

I didn't once bring up KVM, until 7 minutes ago. I asked what makes it better and then you and JB went off on me claiming all sorts of emotional setbacks that dont actually exist. It truly seems that you have a boner for Hyper-V more than anything else, hence your die hard defense of their product.
