    Slide Title: BranchCacheKeywords: BranchCache Key Message: BranchCache caches content downloaded from file and Web servers.Slide Builds: 0Slide Script: Windows 7 introduces BranchCache, which caches content from the remote file and Web servers in the local branch network so that additional users can more quickly access this information. BranchCache supports the same network protocols that are commonly used in enterprises—namely, HTTP(S) and SMB—so that any applications based on these protocols can benefit from the technology. BranchCache also supports network security protocols (such as SSL and IPSec), helping to ensure that only authorized clients can access requested data. You can implement BranchCache in two ways. With Hosted Cache you can implement it by storing the cached content on a dedicated BranchCache server located in the branch office, which improves cache availability. This is likely be the most popular way of implementing BranchCache, and it is intended for larger branch offices where numerous users need to access the BranchCache feature simultaneously. A BranchCache server at the remote site ensures that content is always available, and it also maintains end-to-end security for all content requests.

    The second implementation scenario is Distributed Cache and centers around peer content requests, and it is intended solely for use in very small remote offices, with about 5-10 users, that don’t warrant a dedicated local server resource. In this implementation, the BranchCache server at the corporate intranet receives a client content request. If the content has been previously requested at the remote site, the server will return a set of hash directions to the content’s location on the remote network, usually another worker’s computer. The content is then served from this location. If the content was never requested, or if the user who previously requested the content is offsite, then the request is fulfilled normally across the WAN.Slide Transition: Search Federation provides a consistent experience when searching for data across multiple locations.Slide Comment: To Send feedback on this slide, use the hyperlink on the feedback slide at the start and end of this deck.Additional Information: http://edge.technet.com/Media/Branch-Cache-in-Windows-7/

    Slide Title: Search FederationKeywords: Search FederationKey Message: Search Federation provides a consistent experience when searching for data across multiple locations. Slide Builds: 0Slide Script: Search Federation in Windows 7 provides out-of-the-box support for searching corporate data beyond the user’s PC. IT professionals can easily enable search engines, document repositories (such as Office SharePoint sites), Web applications, and proprietary data stores to be searched from Windows 7. This enables end users to search the corporate intranet almost as easily as they can search their local files—all from within the same familiar Windows interface.Slide Transition: Let’s take a look at Search Federation in action.Slide Comment: To Send feedback on this slide, use the hyperlink on the feedback slide at the start and end of this deck.Additional Information: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/enterprise/products/search-information.aspx

    Slide Title: Windows Powershell 2.0Keywords: Windows PowerShell 2.0Key Message: Windows PowerShell 2.0 is new in Windows 7.Slide Builds: 0Slide Script: The Windows PowerShell command-line shell and scripting language helps IT Professionals automate common tasks. Using a new admin-focused scripting language, more than 120 standard command-line tools, and consistent syntax and utilities, Windows PowerShell allows IT professionals to more easily manage system administration and to accelerate automation. Windows PowerShell is easy to adopt and use, because it works with the existing IT infrastructure and existing script investments. It allows users to automate server management and administration tasks, along with the deployment of server roles, such as Terminal Server.Windows PowerShell integrates the command-line shell and scripting language to allow administrators to more efficiently complete and automate system administration tasks. Windows PowerShell improves upon the Windows Command Prompt and Windows Script Host (WSH) by providing cmdlets (command-line tools) that have the exact same syntax as the scripting language. The command that is typed in the Windows PowerShell command prompt is the same command that would be used in a script for automating the task across multiple servers. The Out-Gridview cmdlet sends the output from a command to a grid view window where the output is displayed in an interactive table. This table view enables you to search, sort, group, and filter the output of a cmdlet. For example, you can send the results of a Get-Process, Get-Wmiobject, or Get-Eventlog command to Out-Gridview and use the table features to examine the data.

    Windows Powershell 2.0 now also includes remoting. You type a command on your computer, and then that command is transmitted via WinRM and the SOAP protocol to the remote machine. These transmissions are encrypted and secure. In return, a new instance of PowerShell is instantiated on the remote computer. The command you issued runs on the remote machine, and then the output is sent back to your computer. In other words, remoting involves a “conversation” between two instances of PowerShell: one on your computer, one on the remote computer.Slide Transition: We will now demonstrate some of the new improvements in Group Policy.Slide Comment: To Send feedback on this slide, use the hyperlink on the feedback slide at the start and end of this deck.Additional Information: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/topics/winpsh/newin2.mspx

    Slide Title: Group Policy ImprovementsKeywords: Group PolicyKey Message: Group Policy ImprovementsSlide Builds: 0Slide Script: The following changes are available in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 with Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) installed. Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 enables IT administrators to manage roles and features that are installed on remote computers that are running Windows Server 2008 R2 (and, for some roles and features, Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2003) from a remote computer that is running Windows 7. It includes support for remote management of computers that are running either the Server Core or full installation options of Windows Server 2008 R2, and for some roles and features, Windows Server 2008.With Windows 7, there is the addition of Windows PowerShell cmdlets for Group Policy. These cmdlets give you the ability to manage Group Policy from the Windows PowerShell command line and to run PowerShell scripts during logon and startup. You can use the Group Policy cmdlets to perform several tasks for domain-based Group Policy objects (GPOs): you can maintain GPOs, associate GPOs with Active Directory containers, set inheritance flags and permissions on Active Directory organizational units (OUs) and domains, configure registry-based policy settings and Group Policy Preference Registry settings, and create and edit Starter GPOs. Windows 7 also includes AppLocker and Bitlocker drive encryption GPOs.

    Group Policy Preferences let you manage drive mappings, registry settings, local users and groups, services, files, and folders—without the need to learn a scripting language. The client-side extensions for these new types of preference items are included in Windows 7: Power Plan preference items, Scheduled Task preference items, Immediate Task preference items, and Internet Explorer 8 preference items.Slide Transition: Let’s move onto the next demonstration: Using Windows PowerShell 2.0Slide Comment: To Send feedback on this slide, use the hyperlink on the feedback slide at the start and end of this deck.Additional Information: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd367853.aspx

    Slide Title: Troubleshooting ImprovementsKeywords: Troubleshooting PacksKey Message: There are several troubleshooting improvements with Windows 7.Slide Builds: 0Slide Script: The Windows Troubleshooting Platform has two key components: Windows Troubleshooting Packs and Windows Troubleshooting Pack Builder. Windows Troubleshooting Packs are a collection of Windows PowerShell scripts that attempt to diagnose a problem and, if possible, solve the problem with the user’s approval. Troubleshooting Packs can also perform ongoing maintenance of a specific feature. Windows 7 includes 20 built-in Troubleshooting Packs that address more than 100 root causes of problems. Microsoft designed the Troubleshooting Packs to correlate to the top 10 categories of Microsoft support calls, including Power Efficiency, Application Compatibility, Networking, and Sound. Troubleshooting Packs can diagnose complex problems, including those caused by multiple conditions, and prompt the user with tips on how to resolve each of them. The Windows Troubleshooting Pack Builder is a development kit, included with the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK), that includes a graphical tool for IT professionals and developers building Windows Troubleshooting Packs. The toolkit simplifies adding Troubleshooting Pack metadata and links to the Windows PowerShell Integrated Scripting Environment for authoring detection, resolution, and verification scripts. Because Windows PowerShell is so powerful, you can examine and configure almost any element of the Windows and application environment. You can deploy troubleshooting packages, using Group Policy Preferences to copy them to the local hard drive, or simply store them on a central file server.Slide Transition: Let’s demonstrate some of these troubleshooting techniques.Slide Comment: To Send feedback on this slide, use the hyperlink on the feedback slide at the start and end of this deck.Additional Information: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd349347.aspx

    Slide Title: Improved Battery LifeKeywords: Battery, PowerKey Message: Improvements to power management in Windows 7 will help extend the battery life of your mobile PC. Slide Builds: 3Slide Script: Windows 7 provides diagnostics that enable IT pros to identify problems across their enterprise. This set of diagnostics has been incorporated into the PowerCfg.exe utility, and it enables IT pros to quickly determine common problems that may impact energy efficiency. They can also identify applications and open network files that prevent a computer from entering Sleep and Hibernate modes. Specifically, Windows 7 instruments event tracing for power management and related services. Typing powercfg /ENERGY in an elevated Command Prompt window starts event tracing on the computer. This command generates Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) or Extensible Markup Language (XML) reports that identify energy efficiency–related issues. These reports contain information about hardware and software issues that affect battery life and the general health of portable computer batteries. With this knowledge, IT pros are able to determine whether inefficiencies are related to batteries or another source. This tool is particularly well suited for IT Pros that are qualifying new PCs for their organization and for IT Pros that create standard PC images. Additionally, running powercfg /REQUESTS inspects the computer for outstanding availability requests, determining which applications and processes are preventing the computer from automatically going into Sleep mode. IT Pros can use PowerCfg.exe to override individual availability requests that might prevent the computer from entering a low-power state.

    [BUILD1] Windows 7 provides greater idle efficiency by reducing (and in many cases eliminating) background activity on the system. Where periodic activity cannot be eliminated because of strict polling requirements (such as timers on the USB stack), Windows 7 exposes a new timer coalescing feature. Timer Coalescing allows Windows 7 to align various background activities and execute them at the same time to keep the processor idle for longer periods of time. Additionally, Windows 7 defers non-critical background activity when the system is on battery power to help extend the battery life of a portable computer. [BUILD2] Adaptive Display Brightness defines additional power policy settings to dim the display after a period of inactivity. Dimming the display can help reduce the display power consumption, although not as much as turning off the display. Adaptive Display Brightness also supports hardware Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) devices to automatically adjust display brightness to the surrounding ambient light, even when the user is interacting with the system. [BUILD3] Windows 7 improves low-battery notifications, which alert users when their batteries are below a critical threshold. Battery-life notifications provide more timely and accurate information about the status of portable computer batteries in Windows 7, encouraging users to connect to a power source before the computer enters Hibernate mode. As shown in Figure 1, the operating system introduces a threshold at 7 percent, which displays a warning dialog box. Users must take an action to dismiss this warning. This threshold is configurable. These notifications are also more prominent in Windows 7, and they encourage users to be aware of their power consumption. IT pros can manage low-battery thresholds by using Group Policy.Slide Transition: As you have seen, there are many new improvements in Windows 7.Slide Comment: To Send feedback on this slide, use the hyperlink on the feedback slide at the start and end of this deck.Additional Information: http://blogs.msdn.com/e7/archive/2009/01/06/windows-7-energy-efficiency.aspx
