Windows Server Virtualization Technologies Training in United Arab Emirates

This five-day course provides IT professionals with the practical knowledge and skills needed to implement, configure, and manage virtualization technologies in Windows Server 2025.

The main focus of the programme is Hyper-V, while enterprise-scale management is addressed through System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM). Participants learn how to design, deploy, and manage virtual machines, storage, and networking across modern server environments, with particular attention to availability, resilience, and scalability.

The course also introduces container technologies available in Windows Server 2025. Learners explore how to deploy and manage containers using command-line tools, PowerShell, and Windows Admin Center.

In addition, the programme covers Remote Desktop Services (RDS), including both session-based desktop environments and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI). This enables participants to understand how virtual desktop solutions can be designed and supported according to organisational requirements.

Participants should have practical experience working with Windows Server in an enterprise environment.

Recommended experience includes:

• Administration of Windows Server and Windows Client systems
• Server maintenance and troubleshooting
• User management
• Basic networking
• Server configuration

Previous Windows PowerShell experience is not mandatory, but it is beneficial because PowerShell is used throughout the course to support automation and management activities.

This course is suitable for:

• Windows Server administrators who are new to virtualization and want to develop practical skills with Hyper-V, containers, and Remote Desktop Services
• IT professionals with general system administration experience who want to develop their careers in virtualization technologies
• Administrators with experience in platforms such as VMware, Proxmox, XenServer, or Red Hat Virtualization who want to transfer their skills to Windows Server 2025

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure the Hyper-V role in Windows Server 2025
• Design and configure Hyper-V virtual networking for enterprise workloads
• Compare virtual hard disk types and select suitable options according to performance and availability requirements
• Create, configure, and manage virtual machines on Hyper-V hosts
• Configure Hyper-V for high availability and disaster recovery scenarios
• Centrally manage Hyper-V hosts and virtual machines using System Center Virtual Machine Manager
• Deploy, configure, and manage Windows Server and Hyper-V containers
• Install and configure Remote Desktop Services for session-based desktops and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
