Windows SharePoint Services 3.0
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2010 is built on and extends the functionality provided by Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 employs operating system and database services to support requirements ranging from a team site for a workgroup, to large enterprise portal solutions serving hundreds of thousands of employees and staff, to a corporate Internet portal supporting millions of users. Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 provides the following security-enhanced, scalable, reliable, high-performance capabilities for site management:

- Security - Providing the essential elements of comprehensive security management by employing a range of authentication providers (for example, Kerberos, NTLM, basic, the Active Directory® directory service, LDAP, ASP.NET forms and Web single sign-on authentication), policy management, group management, and permission levels ranging from individual items in list to entire sites.
- Management - Enabling centralized and delegated administrative facilities for Windows SharePoint Services sites from operational and application perspectives, in addition to ongoing site monitoring.
- Deployment - Providing an architecture that supports flexible, distributed, and scalable deployment architectures, across Web and database servers; enabling configuration and site feature management.
- Site Model - Providing a template-based infrastructure for deployment of custom sites, providing automated navigation and a consistent user interface – while allowing for extensive and flexible customization of site formatting and layout.
- Extensibility - Providing a comprehensive application programming interface (API) that allows custom applications to be built on the Windows SharePoint Services architecture, employing use of XML Web services and SOAP, providing event handlers for cross-integration with other applications, and providing methods for migrating content into Windows SharePoint Services sites.
From a business perspective, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 provides the following foundational collaboration features:
