Each lab can accommodate a small team consisting of technical leads, developers, solution architects and testers with deep solution knowledge. We leverage the Microsoft Platform Adoption Center lab facility to profile your solution on Windows Server 2008 R2 and identify areas for enhancements or feature-integration improvements.
Your application should include a focus on one of the following features in Windows Server 2008 R2:
• Multicore/Manycore NUMA Readiness. A Windows Server parallel or multi-threaded solution leveraging the new NUMA topology APIs and related constructs optionally in connection with a Parallel Computing solution using the Concurrency Runtime + PPL or .NET Parallel Extensions.
• Server Core + (.NET, ASP.NET, or WWSAPI). A Windows Server Core based solution leveraging .NET and optionally ASP.NET or Windows Web Services API (WWSAPI).
• PowerShell 2. A Windows Server solution leveraging any new PowerShell 2.0 features including Remoting, Eventing, GUI, WMI Enhancements, Universal Code Execution Model, among many others. Optional scenarios include solution integration with PowerShell/WinRM for management automation.
• Enterprise Network Solutions. A Windows Server solution leveraging the “Branch Cache” server feature or using the WinHTTP/HTTP.SYS stack directly or optionally using a network stack dependent technology like BITs Lightweight Server or Windows Web Services API.
