Hello folks,
For the past few months, I’ve been busy working as “Technical Reviewer” for the book title: “Hyper-V Best Practices”
And guess what? I Just received good news that it is finally published by Packt Publishing.
The book is authored by my fellow Hyper-V MVP Benedict Berger.
This book is intended for those who already have some basic experience with Hyper-V, and now want to gain additional capabilities and knowledge of Hyper-V.
