The **UiPath.HyperV.Activities** package offers activities for the **Microsoft Hyper-V** virtualized infrastructure.

This set of activities enables IT Departments to easily automate processes for on-demand management and maintenance of Hyper-V virtual machines. Here are some of the automation that can be created using the **UiPath.HyperV.Activities** package:

* Provision of a new server from a template (e.g. for a new application deployment, etc.).
* Take a checkpoint of a virtual machine before installing an update package or a newer version of a program.
* Reset, start/turn off virtual machines (e.g. for applications and OS updates, resource efficiency).
