What are the key features of Windows 2008 Hyper-V?

Following are some key features of windows 2008 Hyper-V
  1. Support for Virtual LANs.
  2. Large amount of memory for the virtual machines,
  3. Ability to run 32bit and 64bit machines at the same time,
  4. Up to 32GB of RAM and 4 CPUs in each guest OS,
  5. Support for either one processor or multiple processor support for the virtual machines,
  6. Support for Snapshots, used to capture the state of a virtual machine at a certain times. You can revert back to that snapshot at any time.
  7. Support for quick migration - allowing you move a virtual machine from one server to another without having shut down that virtual machine (not to be confused with live migration where there is no host downtime, comparable to VMware’s VMotion),
  8. Support for network load balancing between the virtual machines,
  9. Future integration with Microsoft Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) as its centralized management platform.
Good Luck.
