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

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.
