Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Datacenter

Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Datacenter

Windows Server 2019 also helps to prevent malicious attacks against your system with a strengthened security suite that also detects any suspicious activity as a preventative measure.

Users can change existing applications into cloud-ready solutions and help developers to create new ones using containers, microservices, and Nano Server.

Your datacenter can be run with an automated and resilient operating system and will have access to many of the same cloud-efficient features found in Microsoft Azure datacenters.

 Windows Server 2019 Datacenter, users gain access to features :

• Server Virtualization
• Storage
• Software-Defined Networking
• Web Application Platforms
• Server Management
• Server Automation
• Information Protection
• Virtual Desktop

At the forefront of server operating systems

No doubt, Windows has been at the forefront of server operating systems and one stunning example of this is Windows Server 2019. System administrators need not look any further when choosing a server OS and here are some of the best reasons why:

Nano Server

Nano Server is a very tiny version of Windows Server 2019, achieved by removing the GUI component of Windows Server 2016. It boasts a 92% smaller installation footprint than the regular installation option. It is far more secure, due to the fact that you have to add server roles administratively from outside Nano Server, therefore there is less room for attacks as compared to the GUI-version of Windows Server 2016. It has far fewer updates and is so small that it can be ported easily across servers, data centers and physical sites. Although meant to be managed remotely, a minimal local management UI called “Nano Server Recovery Console,” has been included to let you perform initial configuration tasks.

Windows Server Container

One is the Windows Server Container, which is intended for workloads where privacy is not a big issue and common resources can be shared.

Hyper-V Container

The other is the Hyper-V Container. It is completely isolated from other containers and potentially from the host server. Hyper-V containers are appropriate for high-trust workloads where security is paramount.

Linux Secure Boot

Secure Boot is part of the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) specification that protects a server’s startup environment against boot-time malware and other unauthorized rootkits being run.
