Overview
Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003, Standard Edition is a
comprehensive, integrated and dependable server operating
system designed to help IT do more with less by reducing
costs and increasing the effectiveness of your computing
operations. Designed for small organizations and
departmental use, Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition
provides high levels of dependability, scalability, and
security.
Create Operational Efficiencies
The core infrastructure services provided by Windows Server
2003, Standard Edition takes the best of Windows 2000 Server
technology and makes it easier to deploy, manage, and use.
The result is a highly productive operating system that is
secure, reliable, and ready to use "out-of-the-box," with
features that provide robust availability and scalability.
Key enhancements include:
Dependability. Includes new features and improvements that
make it the most dependable small business and departmental
server operating system Microsoft has ever created. It
improves upon many technologies introduced in Windows 2000
Server, such as support for smart cards, bandwidth
throttling, and Plug and Play support. New technologies,
such as the common language runtime, strengthen security to
help safeguard networks from malicious or poorly designed
code.
Scalability. Scales up to 4-way symmetric multiprocessing (SMP).
Customers seeking the highest availability and scalability
should consider Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition or
Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition.
Manageability. Contains several important and enhanced
management tools including Software Update Services (SUS),
command-line scripting support, and server configuration
wizards to help automate deployment,
Enhancements to Group Policy and Active Directory enable
organizations to better use Active Directory and take
advantage of its powerful management features.
Security. Designed with a focus on improving security,
Windows Server 2003 features a redesigned IIS, strong
authentication protocols such as 802.1x and PEAP, and the
common language runtime to create a safer computing
environment.
Having a strong foundation enables businesses to deliver
cost saving services while increasing the effectiveness and
security of each customer's unique computing environment.
Better Applications, Faster
Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition provides a powerful
and integrated application platform which lays the
foundation where applications can be easily developed and
managed. Application services including the Microsoft .NET
Framework, Message Queuing, COM+, and other Application
Server options give developers and administrators an
integrated toolbox that enhances productivity so they can
quickly build connected solutions.
Key application enhancements include:
IIS 6.0.-Redesigned with security, reliability and
performance in mind, IIS is locked down by default, now
capable of process isolation and is over 100% faster in many
cases.
Microsoft .NET Framework. By integrating the .NET Framework
into the Windows Server 2003 application development
environment, developers are freed from writing "plumbing"
code and can instead focus their efforts on delivering real
business value.
XML Web Services. Developers can integrate applications
inside enterprises and across network boundaries with
partners and customers. This allows for federated
collaboration and more efficient business-to-business and
business-to-consumer services.
Leverage Existing Investments. Existing Windows-based
applications will continue to run on Windows Server 2003 and
can be easily repackaged as XML Web services. Developers are
able to use the programming languages and tools they know.
This is made possible by the application services built into
Windows Server 2003, such as Microsoft ASP.NET, transaction
monitoring, message queuing, and data access.
User Productivity
User productivity begins with data. Windows Server provides
the keys with data availability and integrity. Intelligent
File Storage protects end-user data, eases access to complex
networks, and provides scalable a storage architecture. Some
of the services enhanced by Windows Server 2003, Standard
Edition for data availability and data protection are:
Shadow Copy Restore- It allows end-users to recover previous
versions of documents without interrupting their work
process. Once the Shadow Copy schedule has been established,
(on a volume by volume basis), end-users can revert to
previous, point-in-time copies of their files & folders.
MyDocuments redirection. This feature redirects the "MyDocuments"
folder from a user's local machine to a server.
Distributed File System (DFS). Enables administrators to
assign a single namespace that provides users with a virtual
view of logically grouped shares, even though they reside in
different physical locations.
Encrypted File System (EFS). Protecting user data is made
even easier and now includes encryption of offline files and
folders.
However, in today's business environment, file sharing and
data storage isn't enough to streamline processes and make
teams work more effectively. That's why powerful
communication and collaboration services an integral part of
the Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition, such as:
Windows SharePoint Services. Delivers effective virtual
teaming, version control and document management.
Windows Media 9 Series. Enables e-learning and executive
broadcast to be facilitated easily and cost-effectively.
Terminal Services. Provides access to windows applications
over low bandwidth links.
Intelligent printer sharing. Enables
fault-tolerant, discoverable, server-based
printing.
Windows Rights Management Services. Provides information
integrity and control over information assets.
Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition is the server platform
for increasing user productivity. Installing it will enable
workers to have better visibility into critical business
information. The ability to anticipate, manage, and respond
to changes will be dramatically improved.
Summary
Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition is the ideal
multipurpose network operating system for the everyday needs
of organizations of all sizes¡Xespecially small businesses
and workgroups. It is offers a comprehensive server platform
that is easy to deploy, manage, and use. It allows

part to the support of many Microsoft third-party hardware
and software partners, Windows Server 2003 helps users
achieve the greatest return on server investments.
