Knowing your current environment – assessment
This is the first step. You need to do an assessment of your current environment to find out how and where the caveats are. You can use the Microsoft MAP toolkit (download it from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7826) or any other assessment tool to help you carry out a report assessment by querying the hardware, OS, application, and services. It is important to define what you can and need to address and, sometimes, what you cannot virtualize.
Microsoft MAP toolkit will assess your environment using agentless technology to collect data (inventory and performance), and provide reports. Server Consolidation Report, VMware Discovery Report, Microsoft Workload Discovery and Microsoft Private Cloud Fast Track Onboarding Assessment Report are some of the useful reports that will enable your IT infrastructure planning.

Currently, Microsoft supports the virtualization of all MS infrastructure technologies
(for example, SQL, Exchange, AD, Skype for Business, IIS, and File Server).
