Windows Small Business Server 2008

Windows Small Business Server 2008 comes in two editions: Standard and Premium.

Review the different technologies included in each edition with your IT partner and determine which version makes the most sense for your business.

Windows Small Business Server 2008 Premium Edition becomes a second server solution. Windows Small Business Server 2008 Standard Edition will run on one hardware server, and Windows Small Business Server 2008 Premium Edition will run on two hardware servers, with the second server running Windows Server and SQL Server for line-of-business applications.

Windows Small Business Server 2008 will include individual Client Access Licenses (CALs) for Standard and Premium Editions versus a common CAL for both.

Windows Small Business Server 2008 will include the option to purchase a single CAL (in addition to 5/10/20 CAL Packs) in all channels.

All processor and memory limits will now match Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition.
