Operating System and Database Services

Office SharePoint Server 2007 is built on the technologies and services provided by Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and SQL Server 2005 (as well as SQL Server 2000).

The core and development-platform operating system services include:

Microsoft .NET 2.0 Framework which comprises:

ASP.NET 2.0 master pages, content pages, and Web Parts

Pluggable service-provider models for personalization, membership, navigation, and enhanced security

Database access services

Windows Workflow Foundation

Windows desktop indexing and search services

SQL Server is the relational database used for storing all content, data and configuration information used by Office SharePoint Server 2007. SQL Server 2005 is recommended; SQL Server 2005 Express is included as a default part of the installation. SQL Server 2000 can be used as an alternative.

Windows SharePoint Services

Windows SharePoint Services (version 3) builds on the operating system and database services to support requirements ranging from a team site for a workgroup, to large enterprise portal solutions serving over 100,000 employees and staff (such as Office SharePoint Server 2007), to a corporate Internet portal supporting millions of users.

Windows SharePoint Services platform services provide the following security-enhanced, scalable, reliable, high-performance capabilities:
