Windows Server 2008 R2 Feature Components Poster

Dec. 10, 2009 Paul Thurrott | Paul Thurrott's Supersite for Windows

If you've never seen one of those awesome Microsoft product posters, feast your eyes on this: Microsoft's Martin McClean has made one for Windows Server 2008 R2. Here's what's happening...

I have produced a new "Windows Server 2008 R2 Feature Components" wall poster and it is available for download on the Microsoft Download Center.

So what’s the poster about? The "Windows Server 2008 R2 Feature Components" poster targets key Windows Server 2008 R2 technologies by graphically describing the operations and features of those components. In this poster, I have included updates to Active Directory Domain Services, Hyper-V R2 features, File Services updates, improvements to IIS, Remote Desktop Services (including VDI), BranchCache, Server Management and the new DirectAccess technologies.

Good stuff! Don't forget to check out the related Exchange Server 2007 and Windows Server 2008 posters as well.

What? No mention of WDS? They added driver management to R2, which helps with image deployment on disparate hardware.

Probably the most boring thing to come down the pipe in quite awhile. Paul always make it a point to lament things that are 'uninteresting'. This story has to be the prince.

If you don't find it interesting or useful, you have the option to simply ignore it. Chances are others will find it interesting and/or useful Also, lament means "to mourn or grieve". I'm not sure what word you're thinking of, but it's not lament.
