Speaker: Randy Williams
Topic: Building a development environment using Windows Server 2008
Location: OceanIT conference room - 828 Fort Street Mall, Suite 600, Honolulu, HI (Map)
Flat rate parking at the OceanIT building after 4 p.m. is $2.00 payable at the time of entrance.
If you’re walking, the entrance is on Fort Street Mall.
Do you struggle within finding the optimal development environment for you or your team? If you have ample hardware, leveraging the improvements in Windows Server 2008, along with Hyper-V virtualization, may prove to be the best infrastructure to date.
This talk will introduce Windows Server 2008 and Hyper-V technologies from the standpoint of building .NET applications. We will discuss 32 vs 64 bit; virtualization benefits and the Hyper-V improvements over Virtual PC and Virtual Server 2005; and why Windows Server 2008 might be a better host operating system when compared to Vista/XP.
While this talk will contain lecture and some demo, it will be more peer-to-peer discussion than we normally have. Bring your ideas and questions, and let’s discuss them as a group.
As always, free pizza, drinks and door prizes will be given away. Hope to see you there.
