Virtual Infrastructure Awareness Technology monitors resource availability at the physical host level and allows optimizations to occur dynamically between virtual guests so as to completely eliminate the resource contention caused by simultaneous optimizations.

Total automation and flexibility combined with robust central management to provide complete defragmentation of your production Hyper-V environment while eliminating resource contention, so your virtual environment runs better than ever.

Dramatically improve Hyper-V performance
Proven to increase I/O throughput, and decrease I/O request latency by 35% or more. PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V enables the best possible performance for your virtual machines and maximizes the performance of your storage solution. Using I/O prioritization for zero resource contention overhead, PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V optimizes server virtualization performance management by defragging file systems for increased IOP performance and completely eliminating performance issues relating to split I/O requests.

Eliminate Host and Guest I/O bottlenecks
PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V is a complete solution that optimizes your physical host, guest machines, and your storage solution to eliminate I/O throughput and I/O latency bottlenecks. This includes the optimization of both fat and thin provisioned virtual storage on both local and external RAID / SAN solutions.

Space Management ** NEW in 12.5 **
PerfectDisk's new Space Management recovers disk space by detecting and removing duplicate files such as text documents, pictures, music, and videos. Recycler purges the Recycle bin and removes temporary files so that your drive remains clutter free. With Space Reports you can view a graphical and statistical report of file usage and allocation.

P2P Remote Capability ** NEW in 12.5 **
Take control of any client running on a remote computer with the power to access features normally only accessible via a local client. Make on the fly changes to client configurations and behaviors without the need to use Remote Desktop. PerfectDisk also supports direct connections to remote clients via the Enterprise Console.

Automate shrinking of virtual disks
PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V is a thin provisioning friendly technology. Save time and money by automating the offline mounting, file system optimization and shrinking of your thin provisioned virtual storage. PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V is the only solution that allows you to create automated maintenance schedules for your virtual storage. Utilizes I/O prioritization and Virtual Infrastructure Awareness Technology to eliminate resource contention between online and offline systems.

Automatic background optimization
Virtual Infrastructure Awareness Technology monitors resource availability at the physical host level and enables high resource availability and intelligent real time I/O prioritization during file system optimization. This technology allows optimizations to occur dynamically between virtual guests so as to completely eliminate the resource contention caused by simultaneous optimizations. PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V also includes full support for Live Migration to track resource availability when virtual guest migrate from host to host.

Fragmentation Prevention with OptiWrite™
PerfectDisk's new OptiWrite™ technology prevents most fragmentation on your drive before it occurs, which prevents your system from slowing down. OptiWrite™detects when Windows is going to fragment files and intelligently redirects I/O to stop the fragmentation from occuring. System performance is maintained and the need to utilize CPU and Disk I/O resources to defragment files is greatly reduced. Because less defragmentation is needed, there is a direct benefit in the form of energy saved in both CPU usage and in the reading and writing to a disk. It saves in energy costs and in the time required to defragment a file system.

Patented SMARTPlacement™ file optimization
SMARTPlacement™ is the most advanced file system optimization method available today. Featuring full customization, SMARTPlacement™ works with the file system to prevent the creation of performance bottlenecks by consolidating free space and reducing the amount of time and resources required to optimize a volume. Also eliminates split I/O requests and fragmentation while maximizing access times.

Robust support for your Hyper-V Environment
PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V is a Native 64-bit application providing for exceptional server virtualization performance management on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2. (Also supports Server Core 2008 R2) PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V supports virtual machines of all server roles, including Clustered and non-Clustered SQL Server, Exchange Server and File & Print server roles.

Host based licensing – Unlimited Guests
Licensed per physical host, PerfectDisk 12 Hyper-V is a cost effective solution with exceptional ROI. Each licensed host supports unlimited guest licenses for easy license management and superior value. No additional costs per CPU or CPU core. Volume pricing is available.

Includes Enterprise Console
Includes the PerfectDisk 12 Enterprise Console, which provides complete central management of your physical and virtual Hyper-V environments. The Enterprise Console features Active Directory integration, OU Linking, deployment, monitoring, customizable alerts and reports.
