Interview: The Benefits and Reasons for Upgrading to Windows Server 2012 Active Directory

Raymond Chou is the Managing and Principal Consultant for Infront Consulting.  Raymond stops by the Channel 9 stage to talk with Rick while at MMS 2013.  They chat about the benefits and reasons to upgrade to Windows Server 2012 Active Directory.

In this interview they talk about:

• The virtualization of Active Directory as a driving need for customers to upgrade.
• What some of the bad things can occur by virtualizing DC's prior to Windows Server 2012.
• VM Generation ID and how it can be used with Virtualization, Active Directory, and even Applications.
• Support for VM Generation ID.

Raymond also shows us a demo of how to clone a Domain Controller to deploy new DC's without having an AD Administrator at a branch office.
