O2 and Windows Server 2008 (again)

  • Article

O2

I've been working with Michael Maher (a Principal Infrastructure Specialist working for O2 Ireland) for over a year now.  I figured he must be getting close to deploying Windows Server 2008 by now, so I asked him how he was getting on.  He had this to say:

"There are many powerful new features in Windows 2008 which caught my attention. I am particularly happy to see hypervisor level virtualisation and a command line only edition of Windows Server. Our business can potentially benefit from the improvements in Remote Access such as RemoteApp. We are likely to initially deploy Windows Server 2008 as a file server. As our organisation moves to Vista clients this will give us the opportunity to avail of the increased file transfer speeds in SMB 2.0."

I look forward to hearing about O2's deployment.
