Slide 2 PRODUCT FOCUS 4/28/14 5/9/14 Slide 3 INTRODUCTION Our
Product Focus for the next two weeks is Microsoft Windows Server
2012. Microsofts Server platform is the worlds most popular server
operating system, holding an impressive 73% marketshare. Since
introducing Active Directory with Windows Server 2000, Microsofts
server product line has seen incredible growth. With the release of
Windows Server 2012, Microsoft sought to integrate cloud readiness
into the product. Its job was no longer to merely introduce
incremental updates to standard features such as domain management,
group policy, and user / group administration. Rather, it was
designed from the ground up to serve as the backbone for other
cloud integrated server products like System Center, Hyper-V, and
Microsoft Azure. Slide 4 PRODUCT FOCUS NOTES Social Media All
social media posts will revolve around Server 2012 and its many
benefits. Look for a new post each morning for the next two weeks
to push our Server 2012 focus. Target Audience Our target audience
