Microsoft IT Enhances Operations With Windows Server 2003 R2 Upgrade

Overview Microsoft Corporation, one of the world's largest software development companies, needed to enhance file server replication, optimize WAN bandwidth use, and provide a single sign-on experience for its employees. Microsoft's IT group (Microsoft IT) deployed Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 to take advantage of several new features, including: File Server Resource Manager, a centralized tool for managing file servers; Distributed File System, to reduce WAN bandwidth used for replication between branch offices; and Active Directory Federation Services, to create cross-organizational network federations with partners. The Windows Server 2003 R2 deployment has given Microsoft IT better utilization of server storage, less time spent managing file servers, significant reductions in WAN bandwidth usage, a better user experience with single sign-on, and enhanced security.
