Q. Does Microsoft have a server virtualization solution for Itanium servers?

A. Windows Server 2008 R2 is the last version of Windows to support Itanium, and Hyper-V doesn't support Itanium in any of its versions. There's no Microsoft solution for server virtualization for the Itanium platform. Many companies are evaluating other architectures for their server virtualization, such as AMD64, which is perfect for Hyper-V.
