Apple is coming up with Mac OS X Snow Leopard on Aug 28 '09

Snow Leopard Server includes dozens more new features, enhancements, and improvements. For example, Mail Server now includes push email support and runs on a new engine that scales to handle tens of thousands of users at a time. With the new 64-bit kernel, Snow Leopard Server can fully utilize more physical memory, dramatically increasing the total number of simultaneous system processes, threads, and network connections the server can handle.
Apart from this, finder is updated, apple has made it more powerful. I will discuss couple of it's features today.

iCal Server 2

With iCal Server 2, Apple claims that sharing calendars, scheduling meetings and co-ordinating meetings will be easy within a workgroup. One good thing I liked about it is, iCal Server 2 allows you to invite your colleagues for a meeting over email if they aren't using iCal, iCal Server 2.

Wiki Server 2

Mac OS X Server makes it easy for groups to collaborate and communicate through their own wiki-powered intranet website. Wiki Server 2 now includes one of the most useful features in Mac OS X: Quick Look. Just click the Quick Look icon next to an uploaded document and you can view it without downloading the file. Quick Look supports all standard file formats, including text, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, QuickTime, and PDF.
