Microsoft Consultancy, Denny Cherry & Associates Consulting, Releases DH2i DxEnterprise Software Lab Test Results

FORT COLLINS, Colo., March 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- DH2i™, the world's leading provider of Windows Server application portability and management solutions, today announced the release of a lab validation report by the well-known and highly respected Microsoft Consultancy, Denny Cherry & Associates Consulting, in which it reviews the industry unique capabilities of DH2i's recently launched DxEnterprise™ software.  The report examines DxEnterprise software's ability to not only "containerize" Windows Server applications and workloads, but also the critical management capabilities (vs. sourcing management from third parties).  The report further details DxEnterprise software's unparalleled ability to address a wide-range of well-documented Microsoft SQL Server challenges, such as application and workload portability, performance, availability (HA), recoverability (DR) and protection, with the end result being a more efficient and easier to manage datacenter, as well as a dramatic reduction across all associated costs. 

The newly available Denny Cherry & Associates Consulting report entitled, "DH2i DxEnterprise & Microsoft SQL Server: A Hands-On Review of DH2i's Windows Container Software for High Availability & Multi-Subnet Disaster Recovery" specifically details important improvements that can be achieved in the following areas:
-   Creating and Managing Microsoft SQL Server Containers
-   SQL Server High Availability (HA), Failover and Multi-Subnet Disaster Recovery (DR)
-   Microsoft Licensing Limitations (and associated ever-escalating expense)
-   SQL Server Orchestration, Hardware Migrations and Upgrades; Hardware Optimization
-   SQL Server Workload Balancing

"As I put DxEnterprise through its paces, I kept in mind the real-world challenges that my clients – CIOs, IT Managers and DBAs responsible for their Windows and SQL Server environments – address on a daily basis.  Abilities such as easily and accurately moving applications between physical, virtual or cloud environments, or safely running applications on the same physical or virtual server, or finally getting beyond that 50% virtualization threshold, not to mention overcoming the death-grip that Microsoft maintains on most IT budgets, have long moved from the 'nice to have' to the 'need to have' column," said Denny Cherry, Founding Consultant and Microsoft MVP, Denny Cherry & Associates Consulting.  "I was very impressed with DxEnterprise's ability to address these challenges in what I judged to be a very straightforward and easy to manage fashion.  I would therefore feel confident in recommending to clients that they check out DxEnterprise for themselves."*

"DH2i DxEnterprise software delivers the only enterprise class solution for 'containerizing' and decoupling SQL Server instances from underlying hardware infrastructure, and in doing so has revolutionized how customers are able to provision, test, deploy and manage their applications and workloads," said Don Boxley, CEO and Co-Founder, DH2i.
