• A Data center edition that enables large-scale virtualization, Windows Server 2003 R2 Datacenter Edition is built for mission-critical applications that demand the highest levels of scalability, availability, and reliability. Windows Server 2003 R2 Datacenter Edition licenses now include unlimited virtualization rights, meaning customers can run an unlimited number of virtualized instances of Windows Server on processors licensed with Windows Server 2003 R2 Datacenter Edition without having to purchase additional licenses. The use rights also allow the choice of running Windows Server 2003 R2 (or previous version) Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition, and Datacenter Edition as the host operating system and in the virtual instances. In addition to Windows Server and Microsoft Virtual Server, the use rights apply to any virtualization technology or host operating system, although they may need to be acquired, licensed and supported separately from third-parties. The unlimited virtualization rights significantly simplify the licensing of Windows Server for large-scale virtualization, and make it more affordable to consolidate on the Windows Server Platform.


• An Enterprise edition for larger organization needs. Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition meets those needs with enhanced reliability through failover clustering and fault-tolerant configurations, scalability up to eight processors, and 1 TB (terabyte) of RAM. Building on the dependable security of the Windows Server™ family, Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition supports enterprise-level security scenarios, such as more scalable Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service protocol (RADIUS) services and virtual private network (VPN) quarantine. Finally, Enterprise Edition is a highly manageable platform, which contributes to reliable and secure operation. As the business moves commerce and other operations to the Internet, the demand for these applications, both Web-based and back-end processing systems, grows to require 24/7 support. Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition is the recommended edition for supporting mission-critical enterprise applications, such as databases, e-mail, business applications, and branch office management.


• A Standard edition that extends connectivity and control to identities, locations, data, and applications throughout and beyond your organization. Windows Server 2003 R2 extends the Windows Server 2003 operating system, providing a more efficient way to manage and control access to local and remote resources while easily integrating into your existing Windows Server 2003 environment. Windows Server 2003 R2 provides a scalable, security-enhanced Web platform, seamless interoperability with UNIX-based systems and enables new scenarios including simplified branch server management, improved identity and access management, and more efficient storage management.
