Overview
This document is an introduction to enterprise computing capabilities offered by Microsoft as compared to UNIX technology. Its goal is to disclose how the Microsoft Windows platform can be an effective alternative to UNIX. For each of the criteria that are traditionally associated with successful UNIX installations—high reliability, robust security, and high performance—, the text:
Describes how each of these features is traditionally delivered in the UNIX environment
Explains how the features are provided in the Windows Server System at either the same or a higher level of service
Mentions the tools available to achieve the desired service level
Readers will get an overview of the Microsoft enterprise platform that focuses on the Windows Server System and the Windows development environment. Final sections of the document point to available prescriptive guidance and available support for platform migration and subsequent operation.
The primary intended audiences for this guide are IT business and technical decision makers who are considering a migration, and technical and solution architects, UNIX developers, and UNIX system administrators who may be involved in its design and implementation.
