 Answer:

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007) is a collaborative enterprise portal that is built upon WSS 3.0. MOSS 2007 allows people, teams and expertise to connect and collaborate. Unlike WSS, SharePoint Server is not free and requires an additional license. MOSS 2007 comes in two versions – Standard and Enterprise.

The main components of MOSS 2007 are collaboration, portals, enterprise search, enterprise content management, business process and forms, and business intelligence. Previous versions of SharePoint Server included SharePoint Portal Server 2003 and before that SharePoint Portal Server 2001.

Moss 2007 is an abbrviation for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.


Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, or MOSS for short, is a set of SharePoint expansions that run on top of Windows SharePoint Services. MOSS comes in two versions, either standard or enterprise, where the enterprise version adds additional features over the standard version.

The Microsoft Office SharePoint Server feature set is divided into 6 areas:

* Collaboration
* Search
* Content management
* InfoPath Forms services
* Business Intelligence
* Portals for intranet, extranet, and web

MOSS requires an additional licence in contrast to WSS which is included in the Windows Server 2003 licence.
