Windows Server 2008

Windows Server 2008

Windows Server 2008 adalah nama sistem operasi untuk
server dari perusahaan Microsof.

Sistem server ini merupakan pengembangan dari versi

sebelumnya yang disebut Windows Server 2003.

Pada tanggal 15 Mei 2007, Bill Gates mengatakan pada

konferensi WinHEC bahwa Windows Server 2008 adalah
nama baru dari Windows Server "Longhorn".
 Fitur Windows Server 2008
Windows Server 2008 dibangun dari kode yang sama seperti Windows Vista; karenanya
Windows Server 2008 memiliki arsitektur dan fungsionalitas yang sama dengannya.

Karena Windows Vista, oleh Microsof, menawarkan kemajuan secara teknis

dibandingkan dengan Windows versi sebelumnya, maka hal-hal yang dimiliki oleh
Windows Vista juga dimiliki oleh Windows Server 2008.

Contohnya adalah network stack yang ditulis lagi dari awal (IPv6, jaringan nirkabel,
kecepatan, dan peningkatan keamanan);
instalasi yang lebih mudah;
diagnosa, pemantauan dan pencatatan yang lebih baik;
keamanan yang lebih tangguh seperti BitLocker Drive Encryption,
Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), Windows Firewall yang lebih baik;
teknologi Microsof .NET Framework 3.0, seperti Windows Communication Foundation,
Microsof Message Queuing (MSMQ), dan Windows Workflow Foundation (WFW), dan
juga peningkatan pada sisi kernel.
