Microsoft Windows SharePoint Products and
Technologies facilitate collaboration within an organization and
with partners and customers. Using the combined collaboration
features of Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services and Microsoft
Office SharePoint Portal Server, users in your organization
can easily create, manage, and build their own collaborative Web
sites and make them available throughout the organization. Read
below to learn more about the relationship between Windows
SharePoint Services and SharePoint Portal Server.
Windows SharePoint Services
technology in Windows Server is an integrated portfolio of
collaboration and communication services designed to connect
people, information, processes, and systems both within and
beyond the organizational firewall. You can also use Windows
SharePoint Services as a development platform for creating
collaboration and information-sharing applications. It is
available for download at no additional charge to Windows Server
customers.
SharePoint Portal Server
is a secure, scalable, enterprise portal server built upon
Windows SharePoint Services that you can use to aggregate
SharePoint sites, information, and applications in your
organization into a single, easy-to-use portal. SharePoint
Portal Server 2003 relies on Windows SharePoint Services to
provide basic Web hosting and document storage functions, but
extends it with additional functions for navigation, search,
application integration, and personalization.
