Features: 
• Under the Software Assurance programme, customers acquire the right to install any new release of products covered in the agreement during the term of their coverage. 
• Hyper-V (available only for 64-bit platforms) provides tools for creating and managing a virtualized server computing environment, allowing organizations to reduce the amount of hardware needed to run server workloads, to reduce the amount of time it takes to set up hardware and software and reproduce test environments, and to run different operating systems on a single server.
• The optional Server Core installation provides a minimal environment for running specific server roles — Active Directory Domain Services, Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS), Internet Information Services 7.0, and Hyper-V — reducing the maintenance and management requirements and also the exposure to attack for those server roles.
• Windows Server 2008 delivers a unified platform for Web publishing that integrates IIS, ASP.NET, and Windows Communication Foundation and also supports SharePoint Services.
• Application Server is a new server role in Windows Server 2008. Application Server provides an integrated environment for deploying and running custom business applications that are built with Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.0.
Description: 

The Windows Server 2008 server 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 Exchange Server or SQL Server.

The Enterprise Edition supports a highly dynamic, scalable IT infrastructure and up to four instances of Windows Server in guest virtual machines.

Service Pack 2 (SP2) fully integrates the Hyper-V virtualization environment, improves power management, and adds support for new types of hardware, including Blu-ray Disc.
