Although the new Hyper-V hypervisor technology is a key feature of the Windows server 2008 core operating system, Microsoft will still provide customers the choice of deploying Windows server 2008 without this technology.
Windows server 2008 is the most robust Windows server operating system to date. With built-in, enhanced Web and virtualization capabilities, it is designed to increase the reliability and flexibility of your server infrastructure while helping save time and reduce costs. Powerful tools give you greater control over your servers and streamline configuration and management tasks. Plus, enhanced security features work to harden the operating system to help protect your data and network and provide a solid, highly-dependable foundation for your business.
