Description:
The Microsoft Windows Server 2008 operating system enables a network server to handle a diverse set of roles - such as print server, domain controller, web server, and file server - and to be the platform for separately acquired server applications - such as Microsoft Exchange Server or Microsoft SQL Server.
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition R2 is optimised for large-scale virtualisation; its licence allows one server to run an unlimited number of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 instances. It is scalable to 2 TB of RAM and 64 processors. It serves the needs of organisations with large workloads, such as databases or enterprise resource planning. For other needs, see the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 range.
The R2 update of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition updates the Hyper-V virtualisation environment, improves power management, enables remote connectivity without a VPN, and adds features designed specifically to work with client computers running Microsoft Windows 7.
The Service Pack 1 update of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition enhances Hyper-V to use physical memory more efficiently, improves the visual capabilities of remote desktop clients, and adds support for more addresses when using DirectAccess to securely access enterprise shares.
Important: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition R2 requires a 64-bit system. Organisations that want to run Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition on a 32-bit system can receive a donation of this product and then obtain the older SP2 version from Microsoft, either by downloading or by purchasing the DVD-ROM.
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacenter Edition R2 requires a minimum of two processors.
Additional Information: For additional information about the available editions of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and 2008 and the server and client licensing requirements, see the Guide to Microsoft Windows Server Editions and Licensing.
Features:
Key features of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition R2 are:

-
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Datacentre Edition R2 supports a virtually unlimited number of virtual private network (VPN) connections and authentication of a virtually unlimited number of network access service and network policy server connections.
