related to the management of site collections, sites, web applications, and

System Settings
The System Settings page contains settings of the system, e-mail and text messages, and farm management. We can
manage the servers, configure outgoing email settings, configure mobile
account, configure privacy options, manage farm features and manage farm
solutions etc.
Monitoring
The monitoring
features in SharePoint Server 2010 use specific timer jobs to perform
monitoring tasks and collect monitoring data. The health and usage data might
consist of performance counter data, event log data, timer service data,
metrics for site collections and sites, search usage data, or various
performance aspects of the Web servers. The system uses this data to create
health reports, Web Analysis reports, and administrative reports. The system
writes usage and health data to the logging folder and to the logging database.
Backup
and Restore
This describes the backup architecture and recovery processes that
are available in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010, including farm and granular
backup and recovery, and recovery from an unattached content database. Backup
and recovery operations can be performed through the user interface or through
Windows PowerShell cmdlets. Built-in backup and recovery tools may not meet all
the needs of your organization.
Security
SharePoint Server
2010 incorporates a new, more powerful and flexible authentication model that
works with any corporate identity system, including Active Directory, directory
services, LDAP-based directories, application-specific databases, and new
user-centric identity models such as LiveID.
Upgrade
and Migration
Microsoft
SharePoint Server 2010 has been designed for scale and performance and as such
requires new hardware and software requirements. These requirements apply to
both the in-place and the databases attach upgrade approaches. SharePoint
Foundation 2010 provides new members and types that make it possible for you to
upgrade custom Features through versioning and declarative upgrade actions.

new Web application. You can access the general settings in Central
Administration by clicking Manage Web applications in the Application
Management section, clicking the Web application that you want to configure,
