\"Windows\"[German<\/a>]Microsoft released its Windows Server 2022 last month without much notice (see Windows Server 2022 LTSC released<\/a>). Because users have already asked whether there is also a Hyper-V Server 2022, I'll cover it in a separate article. The bad news is simple: Hyper-V as a separate server, which may be used free of charge, is dead. Microsoft is on the cloud trip.<\/p>\n

Hyper-V-Server<\/h2>\n

\"\"Hyper-V Server is a Windows server in Core Edition without a graphical user interface and with the Hyper-V role enabled. The advantaged was that Hyper-V Server was available for free and could be used for virtualization. This was probably Microsoft's attempt to counter vendors like VMware with its free ESXi product. <\/p>\n

No Hyper-V Server 2022, this branch is dead<\/h2>\n

In Microsoft's announcement about Windows Server 2022 there was no hint about Hyper V Server 2022. German blog readers has asked my what about Hyper V Server. Long story short: There will be no Hyper-V Server 2020, and my suspicion was, that Microsoft will abandon Hyper-V server in future. Recently I stumbled over this tweet<\/a>, addressing everything in a nutshell. Nathan McNulty points out that Windows Server 2022 was quietly released, but Hyper-V Server 2022 is dead. Some stupid product manager would think that Azure Stack HCI would make more money. <\/p>\n

\"Hyper-V-Server<\/a><\/p>\n

There is a Techcommunity user post Hyper-V Server 2022<\/a> from August 16, 2021, where somebody asked what's with Hyper-V Server 2022<\/p>\n

Hyper-V Server 2022<\/h3>\n

Anyone know whether there will be a Hyper-V Server 2022? i.e. the free version which is just for running VMs and has no GUI? <\/p>\n

I've seen mentions on forums that this SKU is being dropped, but not found anything official.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On August 24, 2021, Microsoft employee Elden Christensen, Principal PM Manager in the Core OS Group, responsible for Windows Server, reports back from his vacation. He issued the following statement<\/a>: <\/p>\n

\n

Azure Stack HCI is Microsoft's premier hypervisor offering for running virtual machines on-premises. \u202fFor testing and evaluation purposes Azure Stack HCI includes a 60-day free trial and can be downloaded here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2019 will continue to be supported under its lifecycle policy until January 2029, see this link<\/a> for additional information.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is the official answer from Microsoft. The Azure Stack HCI<\/a> is seen as a solution for running virtual machines on-premises. There would even be a 60-day trial version. But as German blog reader Stefan notes within a private email, this solution costs $10 US per core per month. Those who believe they need Hyper-V can continue to use Hyper-V Server 2019 until 2029, which is the last version that is still free. I think that it now for Hyper-V server – smart administrators are looking around for alternatives in the meantime. <\/p>\n

Note: <\/strong>The Hyper-V role in Windows 10 or Windows Server is still available and will be continued. The article above is focussed at Hyper-V Server as a free product.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
