Case Projects
Case Project 1-1
Web Edition is best suited to being a utility server that is used only for hosting web sites and web
applications. The primary benefit is low cost. The primary drawback is the inability to be a domain
controller.
Standard Edition is designed to be a departmental file and print server. The primary benefit is the large
number of services that it can run. The primary drawbacks are the lack of clustering support and a
maximum of two processors.
Enterprise edition is designed to be a large application server. The primary benefits are the large amount of
RAM and processors supported as well as clustering. The primary drawback is cost.
Datacenter edition is designed to be a highly available and massively scalable application server. The
primary benefit is scalability to 32 numbers of processors and 128 GB of RAM. The primary drawback is
cost.

Building the project team should include representatives from the IT department and affected
business units. The accounting department should definitely be included as well as other
departments that use reports out of the system.
Goals for the project should be clearly defined and measurable
A testing procedure should be created that isolates the test environment from the main network.
A rollout procedure should be defined that minimizes disruption to the network.
