Another SharePoint Server 2010 feature which cannot go unnoticed is the Access Services.

Access Services settings support backup and recovery, regardless of whether there is a UI setting in Central Administration.

Access Services has Windows PowerShell functionality that can be used to provide the service that uses settings from a previous backup; configure and manage macro and query setting; manage and configure session management; and configure all the global settings of the service.
