Enterprise Edition Windows 8 eight features HyperV virtual machine integration

Microsoft released today's Windows 8 consumer preview version has "normal" & rdquo; and "Enterprise Edition" two versions. Windows 8 Enterprise Edition is more secure and therefore more suitable for business use. Microsoft has written a detailed product description for the "Enterprise Edition" Windows 8 Consumer Preview System, which is very informative for business and IT personnel.

We can see from this product description that the "Enterprise Edition" of Windows 8 Consumer Preview "Bright Spots" includes the following 8 major functions:

1. Direct Access: Like the BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES), this feature connects to home networks and mobile devices without logging in, but industry insiders question its security. This feature also makes it easy for company IT administrators to quietly perform "backdoors" operations on employees' devices.

2, HyperV virtual machine integration: There are two versions of 32-bit and 64-bit. Users do not need to run Fusion or Virtual Box to build and run virtual machines, which can reduce the cost of creating a server cluster.

3, Windows PowerShell integrated scripting environment: used to write script logs to set the security permissions and other functions of the intranet logged in.

4, BitLocker hard disk encryption: BitLocker 9 is faster and more secure, and can better encrypt enterprise data, but Microsoft also said that its power consumption has increased in the product description. In addition, it has selective encryption, allowing users to encrypt only selected directories without having to always encrypt the entire hard drive.

5, support HTML5, CSS3 and SVG browser standards: Microsoft should have done this long ago, consumers will also welcome, because this can make the browser more fashionable, beautiful and easy to use.

6, with IE 10 browser: can run legacy ActiveX control & mdash; & mdash; this change brings great convenience, because Microsoft has not supported legacy ActiveX controls since IE 7, so that some Enterprise web applications can only be run on IE 7.

7, mobile version of IE 10 browser should also be able to run legacy ActiveX controls (although there is basically no mention in the product description).

8, SkyDrive cloud storage integration for small and medium enterprises.
