Windows Server Longhorn Beta 3 review
Friday, May 4th, 2007
Just last week, Microsoft released beta 3 of its newest Windows Server revision to the general computing public. While Windows Vista
and Office 2007 have stolen a lot of publicity thunder over the past few months with their recent final releases, Microsoft has been slowly but surely churning out its update to Windows on the server. Since Beta 2, released last year, the company has made great improvements in performance, usability and polish — not to mention that the product is more or less on time according to the product’s development schedule, and no features have been cut.
Indeed, features have been added, including the much-anticipated Windows Server Virtualization code, previously called Hypervisor. Additionally, there are myriad incremental improvements to features that have been on Windows Server for a long time — Terminal Services, clustering and server management, just to name a few — as well as some revolutionary new capabilities, like Server Core and PowerShell.
Let’s dig deep into the Beta 3 release and see what’s happening with the next version of Windows on the server. Hands on: Windows Server ‘Longhorn’ Beta 3 review
