Your customers are moving to Windows Server 2008, and they need your help to get there. It's a great business opportunity. But how can you quickly build expertise in migrating customers to the new release? Are there "how to" guides and ready-made tools you can use to bring a Windows Server 2008 service offering to market - ahead of your competitors?
Microsoft has just released a new suite of free guides and toolkits you can use to expertly help customers make the move to Windows Server 2008. Solution Accelerators for Windows Server 2008 give you the in-depth knowledge, best practices, and automated tools you need to build a new Windows Server 2008 business.
Using these free guides and toolkits, you can help customers throughout the entire life cycle of Windows Server 2008: from assessing the readiness of their infrastructure -- all the way to securing, deploying, and operating Windows Server 2008.
Check out the Solution Accelerators for Windows Server 2008 . The suite includes:
|
The Microsoft Assessment and Planning (MAP) tool lets you assess your customer's readiness to move to Windows Server 2008 by generating detailed reports of hardware and device compatibility-without deploying software agents. The tool also provides recommendations for server and application virtualization candidates using Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V, Virtual Server 2005 R2, and Microsoft Application Virtualization (formerly SoftGrid).
The Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2008, the next version of Business Desktop Deployment (BDD), dramatically reduces the time it takes to deploy Windows Server 2008 across your customers' environment.
The Windows Server 2008 Security Guide gives you the guidance and tools you need to automatically deploy a customized security configuration across a customer's organization - in minutes, instead of hours or days. Using the guidance and tools in this Solution Accelerator, you can reduce security deployments by up to 80% !
Our Infrastructure Planning and Design guides in combination with Microsoft Assessment and Planning identify which of your customer's systems can be consolidated with Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V or Virtual Server 2005 R2. They also show you which of your customer's applications can be virtualized with Microsoft Application Virtualization (formerly Softgrid).
