Now, even better
Windows Server 2008 R2 builds on the award-winning foundation of Windows Server 2008, with new features that can help you increase the reliability and automation of your server infrastructure. End users and IT pros like the interoperability with Microsoft Windows 7, but it’s the behind-the-scenes advancements that really make a difference. The enhanced power management system can lower power states of processors and even turn off individual cores when servers are at low utilisation, which saves energy and money.
Virtual machines. Real savings.
The consolidation and virtualisation capabilities of Windows Server 2008 R2 offers some notable business results, helps lower hardware and facility costs and reduces your carbon footprint and energy expenses. Built in Hyper-V virtualises system resources from the desktop to the server without the need for third-party software, moves virtual machines without downtime through Live Migration and connects your people to resources without the need for establishing a VPN. And you control it all from a single screen.
