Hi All,
Just looking to confirm the CDP will not be working with Hyperv right?

Hi Jayson,

Correct, as CDP utilizes vSphere I/O filtering capabilities that are not present in Hyper-V.

Thanks

Microsoft really dropped the ball on Hyper-V some years ago, mentally labeling its feature set "good enough" and going all-in with the cloud. But I think last year it finally struck them that the future is not Azure (as they like to think), but rather hybrid cloud. So we now see their Hyper-V investments trend reversing with them releasing Azure HCI, meaning there's still hope!

Overall though, Hyper-V market share has been shrinking incredibly fast. Even from Veeam perspective, the percentage of Hyper-V deployments went from solid twenties to single digits over the past 3 years or so, with most customers switching to VMware. And unless this trend reverses, soon it will make no business sense for Veeam to continue investing into Hyper-V support...

No changes for now... Hyper-V market share keeps reducing, Azure HCI did not really manage to reverse the trend yet.

Hi Bilal

It's only supported for vSphere.
HyperV is not capable of doing CDP. CDP uses the vSphere APIs for I/O filtering (VAIO).

New Year - same Question - did anything change here in relation to CDP + Hyper-V? ;-)
Also may I ask if you still see reduction of Hyper-V shares as Gostev said in his comment or did it stabilize or grow again?!

I'd like to know too. What's the current usage, especially given the recent announcements/changes at VMWare?

The usage has been reducing slowly but steadily in the past two years.

It will probably take a while to see the effects of the VMWare turmoil (due to long renewing cycles, PoCs needed to test alternative systems, etc.), but I suppose Hyper-V will definitely be one of the platforms that people will go to after jumping the VMWare ship, being it Azure HCI or vanilla Windows Server with Hyper-V enabled. On the last Ignite event MSFT teased multiple features they'll bring to Windows Server vNext, so the Hyper-V technology itself is definitely not dead.
