Powerful and reliable server operating system.
Microsoft is known worldwide due to the fact that it is the most important software company, and their Windows operating systems are used on the majority of planets. Even though they are a lot less popular, this great company also develops other operating systems indicated exclusively for professional use, like
Windows Server 2008.
This operating system, that is
based on the Windows NT 6.0 core, has been developed to be installed on server and has functions that are totally different to those of other platforms that are developed for home use.
It has all the functions that are necessary to share all kind of information through the net and
works as a webserver, thanks to tools like
Internet Information Services (IIS). It also has a function to repair damaged NTFS files, capacity to manage parallel user sessions, it is compatible with the
SMB2 file system and it has an
ASLR (Address Space Load Randomization), that Is a protection against the malware that tries to attack the computer's RAM.
In what regards to the graphic aspect of Windows 2008 there is nothing worth highlighting, because since it is a tool developed for professional environments, it lacks many effects in the interface, even though it has the
classic environment of the Windows Vista system, that is intuitive and practical.
Requirements: Since it is an ISO image, it is necessary to burn it on a DVD or virtualize it, to be able to install the operating system.
Note: The
trial version can be used during 60 days.
