upgrading a windows 2003 webserver
Hello,
I have a website that's hosted on a windows 2003 standard 32bit server. What's the best way to upgrade this server to a windows 2012r2 x64 ? I know there's no direct path to upgrading, so I'll do a side-by-side upgrade; however, does anyone know the best way to transfer the data and what caveats to look for? Are there certificates that I would need to migrate as well?

Detailed advice was given as to how to go about the migration, what to look out for and items that could become an issue due to the technology jump.
Windows Server 2003
Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. 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).
