6. 6 CPU throttling helps ensure that no single web application affects the performance of others Application Initialization improves user experience of first requests Dynamic FTP and IP restrictions set policies to block unwanted access Server Name Indication (SNI) allows high-density sites that are more secure Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) for hardware with complex specifications Centralized SSL store dynamically maps sites to certificates Shared Web Cloud Hosting CONSISTENT AND REPEATABLE CONFIGURATIONS ECOSYSTEM AND EXTENSIBILITY Configuration Editor provides a rich, visual method to edit web configurations and create repeatable actions Shared configuration helps ensure consistency across web farms Provides a common development platform across clouds Embraces web standards to work more easily with PHP and node.js Enterprise Web hosting Windows Azure Pack delivers web sites as a service Deployment Scenarios & Features Supporting Features

8. Help ensure that no single web application affects the performance of others Improve user experience of first requests Set policies to block unwanted access Application Initialization CPU Throttling Dynamic FTP and IP restrictions 8

9. 9 Prevents one tenant’s application from monopolizing CPU resources Reduces vulnerability to attack Helps to manage the end-user experience when the site starts loading Protects servers from denial of service attacks Dynamic IP Restrictions Application Initialization CPU throttling Restriction of FTP logon attempts

10. Benefits Prevents one tenant’s application frommonopolizing CPU resources Sets maximum CPU consumption perapplication pool Sandboxing process controls resourceconsumption per site By defining different-sized sandboxes fordifferent tenants, hosters can createadditional business opportunities based onresource consumption CPU Throttling 10 CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 Tenant ATenant N Earlier scenario CPU 3 Tenant B Application pool CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 Tenant ATenant N CPU 3 Tenant B Windows Server 2012 R2 Preview CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3 Out of resources Internet Information Services 8 throttles CPU to prevent any monopolization Monopolizing CPU cycles Application pool

11. User requests ASP.NET application Application loads drivers, models, libraries, and helpers in the background Benefits Helps to manage the end-user experiencewhen the site starts loading Returns static content as a splash page untilan application has completed itsinitialization tasks Proactively performs initialization tasks foran application when it starts, to improveperformance of first requests Application Initialization 11 Internet Information Services 8 Drivers Models Libraries Helpers Packages Scripts ASP.NET application

12. Dynamic IP restriction is an optional feature that must be explicitly installed using Server Manager Benefits Protects servers from denial of serviceattacks Filters and blocks IP address dynamically Specifies action when Internet InformationServices blocks requests With Logging Only Mode, helps todetermine potential impact for legitimateusers Rules can be configured as static ordynamic Dynamic IP Restrictions 12 You can configure dynamic IP restrictions to help reduce the impact of a denial of service attack

13. Benefits Reduces vulnerability to attack Dynamically limits the number of logonattempts Server blocks access from malicious users Log files track suspicious logon attempts Restriction of FTP logon attempts 13 FTP network security can be configured to help reduce the impact of a denial of service attack

15. Features for enabling and managing the multitenant environment Server Name Indicator Centralized SSL Certificate Support NUMA scalability Isolation and security Scalability Centralized support Simplified management Extensibility Windows Server 2012 R2 Preview Challenges for running high-density websites Shared infrastructure Site A ns SQL Site B ns SQL Site N ns SQL 15

16. Benefits Easier certificate management Reduced hosting costs Increased site density Single, shared IP address Server Name Indicator Internet Information Services 8 Tenant ATenant B Tenant N Virtual domain name 1 Virtual domain name 2 Virtual domain name 3 16 “Web hosting certificate store” can contain thousands of SSL certificates Multiple websites hosted on a single web server Hosting-friendly web sever platform

17. Non-Uniform Memory Architecture Processors can access local memory faster than remote memory A significant percentage of new servers have NUMA Designed for scale-up NUMA scalability 17 Starts scaling NEGATIVELY when the number of cores increases beyond the point where memory synchronization outweighs the benefits of any additional cores Previous Internet Information Services versions on NUMA hardware Internet Information Services on NUMA hardware Scales POSITIVELY with increasing cores, allowing organizations to benefit from their NUMA hardware investments

18. Shared SSL certificates are stored centrally New servers do not need certificate import SSL binding is implied by namingconvention Only one implicit SSL binding to manage,regardless of number of configured SSLsites Certificate is updated by copying andreplacing the existing file Certificate management Centralized SSL Certificate Support 18 Certificates are stored in a file share Internet Information Services is configurable to automatically bind to SSL certificates stored in the shared folder SSL binding configuration

19. Best platform for.NET “Just works” with PHP (and Node.js) Embraces web standards  Innovations with “Dev11” and ASP.NET MVC 4  ASP.NET “webpages” and Razor syntax  WebMatrix provides simple on-ramp and integrates deeply with open source.  First-class support for FastCGI/PHP  Popular open source software apps–WordPress, Joomla!, Drupal, Umbraco and DotNetNuke  Node.js pre-configured  Standards-based support  Great for asynchronous operations and client- driven web apps.  Excellent choice for rich HTML5 applications.

20. Help ensure consistency across web farms Provide a rich, visual method to edit web configurations and create repeatable actions Shared configurations Script generator Configuration Editor 20

21. Benefits IT can maintain a consistent configurationacross web servers Reduces time to operational readiness IT can automatically share encryption keysacross servers for session state loaddistribution 21 Specify a shared location to store configurations

22. Benefits Visual editor makes advanced configurationsettings easier to edit IT pros can create repeatable actions forconsistent and automated processes Internet Information Services configurationeditor can generate managed code (C#),JavaScript scripts, command line (AppCmd),and Windows PowerShell scripts 22 Use the Configuration Editor to manage advanced configurations

23. Provide a common development platform across clouds Work more easily with PHP and node.js Embraces web standards Common development platform 23

24. Benefits Reduces your training costs and takes advantage of existing development skill sets Engages with a large ecosystem of partners and solution offerings Creates applications that run on best-fit platforms Build symmetrical and hybrid apps on-premises and in the cloud 24 Uses the same development tools across Windows Server 2012 R2 Preview and Windows Azure Programming symmetry Common development tools Offers Microsoft.NET developers a complete environment to build applications that span across clouds for a rich development experience

25. A subset of the Microsoft.NET Framework is available for building apps with the new Windows UI using C# or Visual Basic Microsoft.NET for apps with the new Windows UI Support for common language runtime and for.NET Framework classes Support for Managed Extensibility Framework Support for asynchronous file operations Core new features and improvements Support for HTML5 form types and WebSockets protocol Support for reading and writing HTTP requests and responses asynchronously Support for content distribution network (CDN) fallback Web Improved internationalization and IPv6 support RFC-compliant URI support Support for internationalized domain name (IDN) parsing and email address internationalization (EAI) Networking Ribbon control hosts a Quick Access Toolbar, Application Menu, and tabs Repositioning of data as values change (live shaping) Better integration with Win32 user interface components Windows Presentation Foundation Simplification of generated configuration files Support for contract-first development and asynchronous streaming Configurable ASP.NET compatibility mode HTTPS protocol mapping with Microsoft Internet Information Services Windows Communicatio n Foundation Ability to create state machine workflows Support for C# expressions and versioning enhancements Enhanced workflow designer features Windows Workflow Foundation 25
