vOverview of Microsoft Windows Server Benefits
Windows Server 2019 has four main areas of investments and below is glimpse of each area.
Hybrid: Windows Server 2019 and Windows Admin Center will make it easier for our
customers to connect existing on-premises environments to Azure. With Windows Admin
Center it also easier for customers on Windows Server 2019 to use Azure services such as
Azure Backup, Azure Site Recovery, and more services will be added over time.
Security: Security continues to be a top priority for our customers and we are committed to
helping our customers elevate their security posture. Windows Server 2016 started on this
journey and Windows Server 2019 builds on that strong foundation, along with some shared
security features with Windows 10, such as Defender ATP for server and Defender Exploit
Guard.
Application Platform: Containers are becoming popular as developers and operations teams
realize the benefits of running in this new model. In addition to the work we did in Windows
Server 2016, we have been busy with the Semi-Annual Channel releases and all that work
culminates in Windows Server 2019. Examples of these include Linux containers on
Windows, the work on the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), and the smaller container
images.
Hyper-converged Infrastructure (HCI): If you are thinking about evolving your physical or
host server infrastructure, you should consider HCI. This new deployment model allows you
to consolidate compute, storage, and networking into the same nodes allowing you to reduce
the infrastructure cost while still getting better performance, scalability, and reliability.
Microsoft has further reduced container images to improve performance. The Server Core
containers are still a third of their original size. App compatibility has been improved and
support for Kubernetes and Linux containers on Windows has been added.
Features:
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)
Support for Kubernetes (Beta)
Other GUI new features from Windows 10 version 1809.
Storage Spaces Direct.
Storage Migration Service.
