Top Ten Features of Microsoft Server 2008
As is pretty common these days, we get most of our Microsoft Updates from 4sysops, and in this post, he discusses some of the finer-points of Server 2008 (previously known as Longhorn) and outlines his favourite features:
An article at BetaNews also listing the top 10 WS2K8 features. However, both lists only share two features. One is Server Core and the other is Windows PowerShell.
This confirms what I’ve said before. Windows Server 2008 doesn’t really have killer features. You could also say that everyone can create a personal top 10 list choosing among the myriads of new features. I personally prefer other features over the ones listed in the BetaNews article, but some of them are quite interesting.
- The self-healing NTFS file system
- Parallel session creation
- Clean service shutdown
- Kernel Transaction Manager
- SMB2 network file system
- Address Space Load Randomization (ASLR)
- Windows Hardware Error Architecture (WHEA)
- Windows Server Virtualization
- PowerShell
- Server Core
