What does "Dynamic Data Center" mean?

[Peter]

I'm trying to understand more about Windows Server 2008 and Hyper-V Server
but I'm not familiar with some of the terms listed in
http://www.microsoft.com/hyper-v-server/en/us/default.aspx. Where can I find
information about the following terms:
"Dynamic Data Center" and "Host Clustering"? Hyper-V Server does not have
the "Local Graphical User Interface" feature. Does it mean that
administrative tools are in command-line interface?

Yes. Like Server Core, Hyper-V Server does not have a GUI.

Hi Peter,

dynamic datacenter is not a fixed defined term. It is more a buzzword for
making your datacenter more agile and flixible based on virtualization and
automation.

Host CLustering is the clustering of at least 2 hosts. It will enable live
migration of virtual machines and also a fialover scenario if a physical host
fails.

The free Hyper-V server is based on WIndows Core - thus has no commandline.
But you can manage it from other machines with a GUI. If you use it for
Enterprise it makes sense to buy a WIndows 2008 license because with this
license you are also allowed to run a virtual instance, with Enterprise you
may run 4 virtual instances and with Datacenter unlimited (on the host). Thus
if you buy a license you can install a full windows with GUI as Hyoer-V host.
