Windows Server 64-bit editions
Windows Server 64-bit editions provide for higher CPU clock speeds and faster floating-point processor operations than the 32-bit editions. Increased access speed to enormous memory address space allows for smooth operation of complex resource-intensive applications such as scientific analysis application, massive database applications, and heavily accessed Web servers.
The64-bit editions do not support 16-bit Windows applications, real-mode applications, POSIX applications, or print services for Apple Macintosh clients.
What is Active Directory Services?
Active directory is a central component of the Windows platform, Active Directory service provides the means to manage the identities and relationships that make up network environments. After installing the Active Directory You can create centralized User & group for Whole Network. We can say Active Directory does the function in the form of a main switch board for Network operating System. Active Directory itself is more than just a database. It is a collection of supporting files that includes transaction logs and the system volume, or Sysvol, that contains logon scripts and Group Policy information.
Active Directory simplifies the security and administration of resources throughout a network (including the computers that are part of the network) by providing a single point of administration for all objects on the network.Active Directory organizes resources hierarchically in domains, which are logical groupings of servers and other network resources.
One big advantage that Active Directory provides is a single logon point for all network resources, so a user can log on to the network with a single user name and password, and then access any resources to which the user account is granted access. An administrator can log on to one computer and administer objects on any computer in the network.
