properties
A maximum of 75 users can be connected to the server . SBS 2011 is based on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition, Service Pack 1 is not integrated, but can be installed later. The Standard Edition supports up to four processors (also with multiple cores) and up to 32 GB of RAM.
SBS 2011 also contains Exchange Server 2010 SP1, also in the Standard Edition. This means that companies can also use the administration tools of Exchange 2010 to manage extended functions of Exchange , such as guidelines for mobile devices or multiple databases . Administrators can create up to five mailbox databases on the server: each can be up to 16 Tbytes in size.
The Exchange databases cannot be integrated into SQL , but are still independent. Microsoft has improved OWA (Outlook Web App) web access . The functions are similar to those of Outlook 2010 . It is possible to connect smartphones that have ActiveSync licensed (including Windows Phone 7 , iPhones or Nokia phones) to the server. Another innovation is the improved support of Safari and Firefox for OWA access. These browsers can now use all functions of OWA.
