Watch this Windows Server 8 session from the //build conference.  It’s long – but a must if you’re interested in some awesome new features and functionality (especially around Hyper-V).

I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you read this Jason Perlow’s blog on Windows Server.

“Server 8 will unleash a massive tsunami of new features specifically targeted at building and managing infrastructure for large multi-tenant Clouds, drastically increased scalability and reliability features in the areas of Virtualization, Networking, Clustering and Storage, as well as significant security improvements and enhancements.”
