Super simple

As someone completely new to Windows Server 2016 Datacenter OEI - 16 Core License, this book has been a great read and great learning experience for me. Chapter layouts are sensible. Pretty good balance between what you'll need to know for the typical setup, while also mentioning some more exotic setups along the way. Everything was made even more simple by introducing my choice software, the ultimate guide to all of the misrosoft products!

Mastering the software

I don't select business software, I just use whatever the organization installs. I've been using Windows Server 2016 Datacenter OEI - 16 Core License for about 15 years at different businesses; I can only say that it is a relief that software is familiar when going to a new site. I am quite satisfied with it, and i must say, i especially like the new version of microsoft exchange 2016 standard edition since it has the most options and is the most usefull software i needed and wanted.

Ask a Question

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 2016. 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 2016, 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.

Containers on Windows Server 2016 allow you to easily isolate applications and services. There are two different types of containers that are available.

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.

ReFS

The Resilient File System (ReFS) high-resiliency file system. If you have multiple virtual machines, dynamic drives can fill up quickly and the impact can be significant. Using the ReFS capability to fully allocate the storage within your drive, you can keep your host in good shape by using fixed size, fully allocated Hyper-V VMs.

Nested Virtualization
_____

Nested virtualization is the capability of a virtual machine to other host virtual machines within itself. Previously, this has been impossible but this feature is now finally available in Windows Server 2016. When a business wants to deploy additional Hyper-V hosts and needs to minimize hardware costs, it can make use of Nested Virtualization.

Hyper-V Hot-Add Virtual Hardware
_____

You can now add virtual hardware or adjust the allocated RAM to a virtual machine, without having to first power down. Virtual hardware can be “hot”-added while virtual machines are online and running.

Storage Spaces

Storage Spaces in Windows Server 2016 allows administrators to create flexible disk storage. It extends storage spaces to allow failover cluster nodes to use their local storage inside this cluster, avoiding the need for shared storage fabric.

Shielded Virtual Machines

The new Host Guardian Service server role allows for much greater degree of control over Hyper-V virtual machine access.
