Overview of Windows Server 2008 Standard Features

• Built on the strong foundations of Windows Vista's code, Windows Server 2008 Standard comes with the new security and administrative features of the Vista operating system. This includes:
• Rewritten networking stack with native IPv6 and wireless, as well as improved security and speed.
• Better image-based installation, deployment, and recovery.
• Improved monitoring, diagnostics, event logging, and reporting.
• BitLocker, ASLR, and improved Windows Firewall.
• Enhanced core kernel, memory, and file system.
• New installation options such as Server Core.
• Network Access Protection.
• Enhanced terminal services.
• Windows PowerShell to make working with command lines more efficient.
• Active Directory domain functionality.
• Hyper-V virtualization.

Server Core

You have the ability to install Windows Server 2008 on a much smaller scale through Server Core. When selected, you get no Windows Explorer shell, meaning that all maintenance and configuration is done via a command-line interface. It's also possible to control a Server Core installed machine remotely by using the Microsoft Management Console.

If you're not a fan of large operating systems, or simply want to use minimal resources for your Windows server, the Server Core installation is perfect for you. The fewer applications and services running on your server, the better its performance will become. This also leads to less space, as a server installed with Server Core could potentially take up only 3GB of disk space according to Microsoft.

Role-Based Installation

Role-based installation is the more laid-back alternative to Server Core. Brought forward from the 2003 release, it received many updates to become more comprehensive and useful. It allows you to save time by specifying what role your server will play, and let Windows install what's necessary to fulfill that role. This automates the process of configuring a full server install manually, such as uninstalling unnecessary components or spending large amounts of time finding and installing needed extras.

IP Address Management

The new IP address manager (also known as the Windows IP Address Management Center) allows you to track and store IP address allocations much easier. It combines network discovery, static and dynamic address allocation, as well as DNS/DHCP monitoring. Go beyond record keeping and take advantage of the extensive capabilities to identify IP conflicts, log address usage, cross-reference with a hardware inventory, and audit changes directly from one place.

Virtualization

A huge chunk of businesses started using virtualization technology by the release of Windows Server 2008, however, less than 15% of those servers ran actual virtual machines at the time. If you're looking to test the waters with virtualization in a relatively risk-free and low-cost way, take advantage of the Hyper-V technology supported by Windows Server 2008.

Hyper-V virtualizes servers on the operating system's kernel layer. It has the ability to act as a Xen virtualization hypervisor host, making it possible for Xen-enabled guest operating systems to run virtualized.

Live Storage Migration

With live storage migration, you can migrate virtual hard disks or configuration files without interruption. By removing the requirement of shared storage for migrations, you can migrate without having to worry about causing any disturbances. Additionally, you can migrate virtual machines by using only an Ethernet cable with the only requirement being a host on the same domain.

The cap on the number of simultaneous migrations was removed as well - the only limitation that remains is of your hardware itself. Queue migrations, specify priorities and maximize the efficiency of your migrations with the new improvements.

What’s New in Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise?

The revised 2008 Enterprise brings a ton of enhancements in many different aspects - from improvements in crucial areas like Active Directory services, Hyper-V virtualization and the Distributed File System, to completely new features such as PowerShell 2.0. There are plenty of miscellaneous tweaks that result in higher efficiency as well. The extra value R2 brings to Enterprise 2008 bolsters its already impressive performance.

Below, we have compiled a list of the most important new aspects in the Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise:

• Massive improvements to virtualization. The Hyper-V tool is available in Enterprise 2008 R2. It enables you to create and manage a virtualized server environment - major upgrades like live migration functionality and support for dynamic virtual machine storage make it even better than before. Processor and networking support is also vastly improved with R2. Live migration allows you to transfer running VMs from one failover cluster node to another without any downtime or connection drops. As far as dynamic VM storage is concerned, it now supports hot plug-in and hot removal of the storage on a SCSI controller of the VM. Furthermore, processor support includes up to 64 physical cores, making it possible to run multiple intensive workloads on the same host, and networking improvements introduce support for jumbo frames, which are now available in virtual environments as well.
• Clustering changes. Speaking of failover clusters, this aspect of Enterprise 2008 is significantly updated in R2 as well. Among the upgrades are improvements to the validation process for new or existing clusters. In the case of clustered VMs, uptime is increased and management is made more simple thanks to innovative enhancements. Other updates include additional options for migrating settings between clusters and the addition of a PowerShell interface.
• Numerous enhancements in Active Directory Domain Services. There is a slew of new features introduced in ADDS. The addition of the Recycle Bin is a godsend for recovering accidentally deleted AD objects. The improved Administrative Center in Enterprise 2008 R2 now has a task-oriented administration model and supports even larger data-sets. The new organized approach makes it a hassle-free process to perform various tasks that used to be a tad more convoluted than they had to be in previous versions, like resetting passwords or making backups. There’s a lot of functionality added to ADDS - other improvements include a module for PowerShell commandlets, a Best Practices analyzer, Web Services, managed Service Accounts and much more.
• PowerShell 2.0. So far, PowerShell has been mentioned a lot. There is a good reason for it - it’s one of the most prominent features in Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise. Designed specifically for system administration, PowerShell gets a ton of extra functionality with its 2.0 version. More than 100 new cmdlets, remote management, an integrated scripted environment and multiple modules that help you organize scripts and functions are among the paramount improvements. With PowerShell 2.0, you can manage your Enterprise 2008 R2 server at the command line, automate a ton of menial tasks and create complex tools in a relatively simple manner.

Amazing Value in Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise

The revised Enterprise edition of Windows Server 2008 truly offers an unmatched combination of tools and improvements in its category. It has all the potential to become a centerpiece of your business network management and administration. All of the features in Enterprise 2008 R2 work in unison to provide valuable benefits for you and your business:

• Agility, cost reduction and productivity. It goes without saying that virtual machines are an inseparable part of today’s business world. The improvements to virtualization in Enterprise 2008 R2 allow you to move VMs to the best option for performance, scaling or optimal consolidation whenever the need calls for it, without affecting your users. Furthermore, service can be performed with zero downtime and maintenance windows are a thing of the past. This, combined with lower power consumption thanks to smart server mechanisms, leads to reduced costs for your business. Server administrators will also appreciate the increase in productivity, as VMs can be kept online at all times, even during maintenance.

AD admins, network architects, developers, security and datacenter admins - the improvements result in higher productivity across a wide spectrum.

 Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise R2 Sp1 License

Windows Server 2008 is a powerful server operating system developed and produced by Microsoft. It is the successor of Windows Server 2003, which was released nearly five years earlier.

A second release called Windows Server 2008 R2 was released on October 22, 2009. Unlike the first one, this release is built on Windows NT 6.1, similar to Windows 7, and is the first 64-bit-only operating system.  With a new release come improvements, such as new virtualization and management features, version 7.5 of the Internet Information Services (IIS) web server and new functionality for Active Directory. Windows Server 2008 R2 also supports up to 64 physical processors or up to 256 logical processors per system. With the Enterprise Edition, you can use 8 of these physical processors. It’s also important to know that 32-bit-only processors (IA-32) are no longer supported in this release.

Service Pack 1 (SP1) for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 was released on February 9, 2011. The pack includes many bug fixes, but also came with two new major features, RemoteFX and Dynamic Memory. RemoteFX enables the use of graphics hardware in order to support 3D graphics in a Hyper-V based VM. The other function, Dynamic Memory, makes it possible for a VM to only allocate as much physical RAM as needed temporarily for its execution.

This product is a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise R2 Service Pack 1 license. No physical product is needed to be shipped, so you can expect quick delivery after you’ve made your purchase with us. The product is delivered digitally.

Features

Included in Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise R2 is everything from the original Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise but with new features to further enhance the user experience. Read on to see what new features were added and how you can take advantage of them!

New Virtualization Capabilities-- Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise already included powerful virtualization capabilities, and now with the R2 release, you have access to even more features, such as Live Migration, Cluster Shared Volumes, and Hyper-V.

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise License Only

Windows Server 2008 is a powerful server operating system developed and produced by Microsoft. It is the successor of Windows Server 2003, which was released nearly five years earlier. It was built from the same code base as Windows Vista, therefore it shares much of the operating system’s capabilities and functionality. Since this base code is quite common, it automatically comes with most of the technical, security and administrative features of Windows Vista.

Some of Windows Server 2008’s new features include a rewritten networking stack that includes native IPv6, native wireless, and enhancements to speed. Image-based installation, diagnostics, monitoring, logging and reporting tools have been improved as well. New security features include BitLocker and Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), and a securely configured Windows Firewall. The core kernel, memory and file system have been looked at and enhanced too.

Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition is worth purchasing for any business or company, as some features made it easier for these environments to work and develop better. An example of this is the newly added Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), which enables enterprises to share credentials with partners or customers. With this, a consultant is able to use their company username and password to log in on a client's network. Another feature available in the Enterprise Edition is Failover Clustering, which offers high availability for services and applications. This allows almost every server feature and role to be kept up and running with little to no downtime.

Features

Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise offers a vast array of enticing benefits. Many of these features will result in positive changes to your organization’s management process, allowing for more effectiveness and efficiency in the workplace. These features work in unison to provide you with a powerful, clean and dependable server.

Check out some of the features that make Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise the best choice for your business:

• Server Core. Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise offers a Server Core installation; this provides the minimum installation required to carry out a certain server task, such as Print Server, DHCP, and DNS. As far as security goes, this feature is a godsend. Having less applications and services on the server make for a smaller attack surface. What’s more, it also leads to easier system maintenance with fewer patches to install.
• Windows PowerShell. The addition of the PowerShell scripting language to Enterprise 2008 certainly is a welcome one. It has proven to be quite popular with server administrators, especially those familiar with Linux environments. Now available to Windows Server 2008, PowerShell shines when it comes to efficiency - multiple tasks cost a fraction of the time to perform, as opposed to the prior method of using the GUI.
• IIS 7. This Web server is bundled with Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise. With a plethora of changes and improvements in security and functionally over the previous version, IIS 7 offers you much more flexibility. For example, you can delegate server administration with the included ability to restrict admin privileges.
• Role-Based installation. Another great feature of Enterprise 2008, the idea behind role-based installation is that you don’t need to configure a full server install. Instead of the tedious process of removing unnecessary components, then installing the needed packages, all you need to do is simply specify your desired server role - Windows will take care of the rest and install only what’s necessary.
• Enhanced terminal services. Terminal services have been improved in Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise. TS RemoteApp allows remote users to access a centralized application (instead of the entire desktop). These applications can be accessed from a Web portal or from a configured icon on the local device.
• Security. There are many security features and enhancements in Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, such as a focus on reducing attack surfaces by running minimal installations, and new additions in BitLocker and Nap. Another example of a security feature is Address Space Load Randomization – it makes it much more difficult to perform buffer overflow attacks by changing the location of various system services each time a service is run.
• Virtualization Licensing. With more and more machines becoming virtual rather than physical, you can easily manage licensing to make sure your company is in compliance with virtualization opportunities.

Why Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Is Perfect for You

The technical improvements of Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise make it an excellent choice for your organization's network infrastructure. The virtualization platform is intuitive and very easy to use. Whether you want to use a server manager, PowerShell or a WMI interface to manage your network, the choice is yours with Enterprise 2008.

Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise isn’t a challenge for most network professionals to administer. It has many incorporated features that are preferred by Linux users. Its high customization and emphasis on security makes it a perfect choice for your business that won’t let you down. Here are the main advantages of Enterprise 2008:

• Virtualization. One of Enterprise 2008’s greatest strengths is its virtualization capabilities. You can create and manage a virtual server environment without any limitations, allowing you to use your hardware and other administrative resources in a more efficient manner.
• Adding Server Roles. Adding and removing roles for your server to perform has never been easier. With Enterprise 2008, these settings are just a few clicks away and take effect instantly, no hassle involved.
• Network Monitoring. Yet another crucial benefit of Windows Server 2008 Enterprise is the attention to monitoring your network and making sure everything is kept up to speed. Many tools are included for monitoring and reviewing your server and network’s health and performance, making Enterprise 2008 an ideal pick for those of you who like to have a streamlined and intuitive interface that allows them to observe vital parameters with ease.
• Security. One of the most important aspects of a business network is the tools and mechanisms in place to protect your company’s information, as well as that of your customers. Enterprise 2008 passes the test with flying colors, ensuring your network is kept safe and secure and minimizing the risk in the event of malicious activity.
• Scalability. With Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, your server has all the necessary capabilities to expand in tandem with your organization, guaranteeing that your needs are met as you move on to larger-scale operation.
