ALL NEW WINDOWS 8
Microsoft had already begun work on Windows 8 before
Windows 7 was completed. The reason being that different teams work on different
aspects of the operating system, which is why Microsoft was able to do this.
Microsoft starting major improvements for Windows 8
soon Microsoft already entered the planning stages of Windows 8 last year in March
when Windows 7 was still in Milestone 1. The Redmond company recently revealed
in a job opening post for the Lead Software Development Engineer position that it
will soon begin working on major improvements on Windows 8.
For the upcoming version of Windows, new critical
features are being worked on including cluster support and support for one way
replication. The core engine is also being reworked to provide dramatic performance
improvements. We will also soon be starting major improvements for Windows 8
where we will be including innovative features which will revolutionize file access in
branch offices.
The following innovative features are some of the many features
that we could be seeing in Windows 8:

Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) service: A multi-master
replication engine set up for folder synchronization across multiple servers.
This may be something we will be seeing in Windows 8 Server.

Major improvements in Branch Cache: Branch Cache was a new feature
developed in Windows 7. Basically when data from an intranet website or file
server is accessed, it caches those files locally so the next user can access them
more quickly. Major improvements can be expected for Branch Cache.

Hibernation improvements: Windows 8 will include a special
Hibernation/Resume API that will replace Windows Vista Xpress compression
engine used in the hibernation process. Windows 7 includes some
improvements in this area, but they are promising a whole new experience.

Kernel security enhanced. PatchGuard feature (Windows’ kernel security
module) will provide a new and enhanced security.

New user interface. Nothing much about this, but they are promising a new
one.

Improvements in the Remote Desktop protocol and other Server tools.

New download experience.

New networking features.

Windows 8 Application Server. For the server version, will include (like
already has) the application server role but with a new strategy.
