You are the network administrator for Company. Company’s Web site is hosted at a local ISP.

Company needs to move the Web site from the ISP to Company’s perimeter network.

The design team specifies that five servers will be needed to host the Web site. The five servers must balance the network load of requests from the Internet. The Web site must remain available in the event that up to three servers fail at the same time. Each server will have four processors and 4 GB of RAM. Discussions with the design team and the Web developers reveal that the site can be implemented by using either shared storage or local server storage.

You need to select the proper operating system to install on each server. You need to select the proper Windows Server 2003 technology to provide fault tolerance. You need to select the lowest edition of Windows Server 2003 that meets the requirements in order to minimize costs.
