Building on the integrated set of technologies in Windows® 2000 Server, Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Advanced Server provides advanced symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) support, clustering, and load-balancing technologies—so you can run more demanding e-commerce and line-of-business applications.
Internet-enable your business: Scale out using Network Load Balancing to distribute incoming traffic across server farms when running busy Web servers, Terminal Services, e-commerce, and VPN solutions; Scale up by utlizing the latest server hardware for up to 8-way SMP and up to 8 GB of RAM; integrated Internet services power reliable, high-performance Web sites and applications so they can use the full potential of the Internet.
Increased reliability: Two-node, high-availability clustering ensures critical applications are up and running on demand; Network Load Balancing re-distributes Web workload away from failed servers; improved kernel architecture provides design enhancements to increase system uptime; rolling upgrade support to reduce planned downtime for maintenance or upgrades, including upgrades from Windows NT 4.0 clusters.
Easier to use and manage: Manage clusters remotely with both the Cluster Administrator and NLB scriptable command line interface from any networked Windows 2000 system; Access and manage Cluster Service clusters as Active DIrectory objects.
Best for new devices: Take advantage of the latest server hardware, including up to 8-way SMP using Intel's Profusion chipset and architecture, and up to 8 GB RAM with Intel's Physical Address Extension (PAE).
