Components and Benefits of MS SBS 2011
MS SBS 2011 was available in the Standard and the Premium Add-on editions. The Standard edition includes Windows 2008 Server R2, Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Standard SP1, Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Foundation, and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) 3.0 with SP2. The Premium Add-on includes a second Windows 2008 license plus Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 for Small Businesses. The additional copy of Windows Server 2008 allows you to run Windows Hyper-V as well as Remote Desktop Services. These features were previously included in the SBS 2008 Premium Edition.
