Consider the graphic shown below. The graphic on the left shows what customers are telling Microsoft they want from an operating system platform. Of course, there’s the ‘kernel’ – the core of any operating system. On top of that are a collection of important services needed to deliver the basic functions of a modern network operating system, such as file services, web services, etc. Then, there are additional components such as data management services, development tools, and management products needed to build, deploy and manage enterprise-class applications. Finally, there are the applications or the solutions themselves. Most important, customers expect and demand that all of the “parts” are engineered to work as an integrated platform. When systems are fully integrated, there are numerous platform features that deliver benefit to the business such as single sign on between applications, a common management infrastructure, and consistent user interfaces between applications and other components.
The middle graphic shows that Windows Server provides a powerful kernel, a comprehensive and integrated set of distributed computing services and application frameworks. The Microsoft approach is to integrate both horizontally within Windows (i.e. between features of Windows) as well as vertically to the client operating system. Development tools and other applications that run on Windows delivering value-added integration benefits that save time, effort and money for an organization. Any application that is designed to run on the Windows operating system platform will see platform benefits such as single sign on, common user interfaces, and a common set of management tools. Windows Server is complimented by state of the art tools such as Visual Studio.NET, the industry’s leading database (SQL Server™) and a set of management products designed to integrate with, and extend the core manageability features of, the Windows operating system platform.
Ultimately, it’s Microsoft’s perspective that customers are trying to get to the same state, which is one of having a comprehensive and integrated environment that they can depend on – the choice they need to make is whether they want to pay a premium for services, additional software, and additional IT staffing, and custom coding to get there and maintain that state with the Linux/NCS.
