Windows Server 2008 R2 new features

Michael Pietroforte from http://4sysops.com wrote a series of articles about Windows Server 2008 R2 new features. Windows Server 2008 R2 will hit the market very soon, providing new and improving old technologies. I won’t copy-paste all articles here, but here is the list of the most interesting (for me) features:

• Hyper-V Live Migration
• Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)
• Active Directory Administrative Center
• Internet Information Services 7.5 (IIS)
