Windows Server | Windows Server Infrastructure
Windows Server is designed to power a business’s growing technology infrastructure. With a wide variety of features, Windows Server can power file storage, applications, enterprise-level management and communications. The platform has existed for well over a decade and continually introduces improvements for optimal networking, security and server stability.
Windows Server takes security seriously. The security features built-in to a server platform serve as a core defense against data breaches, hacks and even data theft from employees. Some of the top security features include:
Credential guard, including remote guard
Advanced administrative options
Shielded virtual machines
Enhanced threat detection
Device guard
Windows Defender
AppLocker
Software-Defined Vs. Cloud
Windows Server supports both software-defined and cloud installations. With the release of Windows 2016, both options have more powerful features than ever before. Please note that Windows Server 2008 and 2012 are still widely used. Some of the more notable new and improved features include:
Full support of Linux and FreeBSD workloads
Improved server management tools
Nano Server installation option (considered a base version of Windows Server)
VM load balancing
Hot add/remove for physical resources
Software load balancer
Microsegmentation for networking
