platform, codenamed Longhorn, will be a more secure, manageable, and modular operating system, according to the company.
During his presentation at this year’s Tech.Ed conference in Sydney yesterday, Microsoft server division senior product manager David Lowe said security, reliability and performance are the prime concern of people running servers and the company has focused its development efforts on those areas.
