Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter.

Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
