Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard
With Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard Microsoft offers a solution for private and commercial server applications that is easy to install and maintain. The Server version of Microsoft Windows has been further developed and impresses with some new features and functions. This article explains what Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard is about and how it can be used.
What exactly is Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and what is this software used for?
This software is an operating system from the software giant Microsoft. It is a specially developed operating system, which was created for the configuration, administration and maintenance of servers and was also optimized for this purpose. Microsoft Windows Server is therefore generally not suitable for ordinary work on the computer, but is specifically intended for use and installation on a Server. It offers a number of different tools and features that make the administration and configuration of a server very simple and efficient. Microsoft Windows Server is not only used in the private sector, but also frequently in the business sector. Many large companies administer their Server with the help of Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard. This operating system also makes it possible to create a so-called Cloud, which users and employees can then access. Likewise, such a Server can be used for backups and other data backups, which can also be encrypted. What hardware requirements must the computer meet in order for Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard to work on it? The computer needs a 64-bit capable processor with a clock speed of at least 1.4 GHz so that Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard can run smoothly. Furthermore, about 32 GB and hard drive space and about 512 MB of random access memory (RAM) are also required. With an SSD or higher RAM, the system can run much better and faster. A higher processor clock speed will also increase the execution speed. Furthermore, a WLAN adapter or an Ethernet adapter is also required to connect a server. These adapters are usually already built directly into the hardware.
How does an installation of Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard take place on the computer or on the server?
This operating system can be installed either from a CD or from a USB stick. However, the medium should be bootable in any case, so that it is recognized directly by the computer at startup. The medium is then inserted, the computer is switched on - the computer should then recognize and start the installation of Windows immediately. If the computer does not recognize the installation right away, the BIOS settings should be checked. Booting from CD or USB stick should then come first, even before booting from HDD or SSD. A wizard guides the user through the installation and explains all steps. In addition to a GUI installation, an installation from the command line (terminal) is also possible. This is only recommended for advanced users, here the user can make very detailed settings. It is also possible to select whether Windows Server should then function as a GUI operating system or only from the command line. With the latter option, the computer can be controlled from another computer via a secure SSH connection, so no monitor is required for setup.

Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Standard 16-Core
The edition Windows Server 2016 Standard offers especially smaller companies, which only operate virtualized environments to a small degree or mainly use physical Server, a modern, powerful Server operating system, which is also Cloud-capable and thus fully meets their requirements. Compared to its predecessor, this edition offers many new features, including support for switching to a Cloud-based environment, as well as many features that ensure greater stability and security of the infrastructure - through improved protection against network and storage failures.
Thanks to the familiar interface from Windows 10, the administration of Windows Server 2016 Standard is virtually intuitive. Windows Server 2016 Standard thus offers all the prerequisites for creating complex networks, or for using the server software for a data center in a company to manage IT infrastructures, while improving the security of data through various enhancements.
The decision to purchase the Standard edition of Windows Server 2016 is mainly determined by the need for the available functions or possibilities for virtualization of services. For this purpose, this already provides many important functions for smaller companies to develop and operate stable hyperconvergent infrastructures. For the closer connection of local environments with the Cloud, the Microsoft Azure Services also offer some practical functions here.
With the Windows Server 2016 version, the licensing of the Standard-edition is also exclusively Core-based: Pro Server is always based on 16 cores as a minimum number, so that the 16-Core Package can already be sufficient as a basis to license this conveniently and flexibly.
You can get the 16-Core Package from Windows Server 2016 Standard at Softwarehandel24 as used software. In addition to the great advantage of its lower price compared to new - if this version is still offered as such new at all - Used Software offers the same range of functions in terms of virtualization features as well as in performance and comprehensive protection of data and applications. Detailed information about the most important functions of Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Standard Edition including the applicable licensing conditions is provided in the following overview.
What features does Windows Server 2016 Standard offer?
Windows Server compared to the predecessor version, 2016 Standard offers a higher speed in the execution of applications, a better Cloud connection and, of course, a number of new functions for the virtualization of servers and Services, which thus support the change to a Cloud environment. With the Standard edition, it is therefore possible to create complex networks that are characterized by greater stability as well as greater protection of infrastructures. For the operation of a data center for the management of the IT infrastructure of companies, additional options for the assignment of user rights as well as new Server roles are available - due to the improved protection in case of network and storage failures, a more secure and efficient management of the entire Server system is possible.
In addition, it is possible to run Windows Server 2016 in the simpler Core application - without the graphical Desktop interface - which significantly improves performance when running on older hardware. Other features of the Standard-version, especially concerning virtualization capabilities, are explained below.
Support for Windows Server containers under Docker
Microsoft now also provides Windows Server containers and Hyper-V containers based on the open source Docker project in this Server-version.

Detailed information about the new features of Windows Server 2019 Datacenter 16-Core as well as the related Microsoft licensing terms for this Windows Server software is provided in the following overview.
Windows Server 2019 Datacenter - key new functions and features
Windows Server 2019Datacentercontains a number of enhancements over the previous version as well as additions to existing features that take virtualization capabilities as well as security to a new level: HCI or hyperconverged infrastructure platforms offer many advantages in Server- and Desktop-virtualization, they are not only easy to implement and manage, but also to scale, thereby significantly simplifying the complexity and deployment and of IT infrastructures.
What is the value proposition of the Windows Server 2019 Datacenter edition?
First of all, the Windows Server -Edition Datacenter 2019 offers the maximum of virtualization possibilities and is therefore particularly interesting for companies in which this as well as high IT workloads play an important role. The number of virtual machines and Hyper-V containers that can be operated with it is unlimited in this edition, the RAM limit is 24 TB. Other important features, some of which are only available in the Datacenter edition with maximum functionality, are:
Shielded Virtual Machines
With Shielded Virtual Machines it is possible to create highly secured virtualization infrastructures. Shielded VM isolates virtual Server in such a way that, for example, sensitive data stored in a public Cloud is reliably protected from unauthorized access or use. Server services and their data are encrypted and shielded using Hyper-V VMs. It is also possible to convert existing VMs into shielded VMs. In addition to Windows VMs, protected Linux VMs can also be created here. Shielded VMs can be installed via Server-Manager, Windows Admin Center or via PowerShell.
Software Defined Networking
The Software Defined Networking (SDN) feature in Windows Server 2019 offers the central configuration of physical network devices such as routers and switches as well as their dynamic management - in addition also of gateways - since here the network layers are no longer bound to the network devices. Existing SDN-compatible devices can also be used to achieve greater integration between the physical and virtual networks. Virtual network elements include Hyper-V virtual switch, Hyper-V network virtualization and RAS gateway.
SDN can be used, for example, to:
Dynamically create, secure and connect networks
Define policies to control physical and virtual networks; and
Scale network policies
Accelerate the delivery of workloads
Minimize security risks on the network
The Windows Server 2019 Datacenter edition also features a number of optimizations and additions to Software Defined Networking, including firewall monitoring and the ability to peer and seamlessly connect two networks. Encrypted Networks also enables secure encryption of virtual networks via Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) to prevent unauthorized access.
Software-Defined Storage
Software-Defined Storage (SDS) in Windows Server 2019 offers a storage architecture whose software is separated from the hardware through virtualization to minimize their dependency. SDS also enables flexible scaling of storage capacity, which also contributes to cost efficiency.
Storage Replica
Storage Replica in Windows Server 2019 Datacenter supports both synchronous and asynchronous replication and prevents data loss at the file system level. Synchronous replication mirrors data at physical sites with fail-safe volumes, while asynchronous replication mirrors it between sites using network links with higher latency. Disaster preparedness minimizes potential downtime in the process. Storage Replica is available without limit in the Windows Server 2019 Datacenter edition.
Storage Spaces Direct
The Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) function combines the local data storage of servers into a virtual cluster. The nodes of such a cluster can have different physical disks or disk systems, and communication between them takes place via the SMB protocol. Storage Spaces Direct not only simplifies the implementation and management of software-defined storage (SDS) systems, but also enables the creation of scalable, highly available storage systems. This allows the server's storage to be used independently of its hardware, increasing its efficiency. In addition, S2D offers increased resilience, so that if the number of cluster nodes increases accordingly, multiple cluster nodes can fail without being affected.
Other features of Windows Server 2019
In addition to these features, the following important features are also available to enterprises with Windows Server 2019 Datacenter Edition:
Support for Kubernetes
Windows Server 2019 now offers even better support for Kubernetes. Linux and Windows containers managed with Kubernetes can also be used in parallel. New features such as container networking are available for Kubernetes, and individual images have also been improved; the "Windows" container image is also available, which has a wider range of features.
System Insights analytics features
System Insights for predictive analytics in Windows Server 2019, powered by a machine learning model, enable Server to evaluate system data such as performance as well as events on it to make accurate predictions, reducing the effort required for reactive administration of Windows Server instances.
Increased protection of sensitive data
Reliable protection of infrastructure and sensitive workloads is becoming increasingly important in enterprises. Windows Server in 2019, various functions such as the Domain Controller and the aforementioned Shielded VMs will be available for this purpose. In addition, Windows Defender has been enhanced with new features such as Exploit Guard, as part of Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP), this enables monitoring of and access to documents and folders located on the network.

Windows Server 2019 Datacenter - for virtually unlimited virtualization
The Windows Server 2019 Datacenter edition takes virtualization capabilities - as well as data and application security - to a new level: in addition to many enhancements and additions to features already known from the previous version, it includes the ability to create software-defined HCI (hyperconverged) infrastructure platforms, which offer many advantages in Server- and Desktop- virtualization, because they are not only easier to implement and manage, but also to scale, simplifying the deployment of even complex IT infrastructures.
What added value does Windows Server 2019 Datacenter offer?
Basically, the Windows Server 2019 Edition Datacenter offers the maximum in virtualization capabilities - which is why it is particularly suitable for those companies where this plays an important role alongside associated higher IT workloads. In the Datacenter edition, the number of virtual machines and Hyper-V containers that can be run is unlimited, with a RAM limit of 24 TB. For this, the following important features are also available with maximum functionality:
Enhanced protection in the Cloud with Shielded Virtual Machines
Shielded VMs (Virtual Machines) enable the creation of highly secured virtualization infrastructures. Virtual Server are thus secured in such a way that data and applications stored in a public Cloud are reliably protected against unauthorized access or use. Existing VMs can also be converted to Shielded VMs and protected Linux VMs can also be created. The installation of Shielded VMs is done with the Server-Manager, in the Windows Admin Center or via PowerShell.
Software Defined Networking
In Windows Server 2019, the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) feature enables centralized configuration of both physical (such as routers, switches and gateways) and virtual network devices and elements (such as Hyper-V virtual switches, Hyper-V network virtualization and RAS gateways) as well as their dynamic management. Existing SDN-compliant devices can be used to achieve greater integration between the physical and virtual networks, as network layers are no longer tied to network devices. Windows Server in doing so, 2019 Datacenter Edition provides the ability to peer and seamlessly connect two networks, as well as firewall monitoring.
With SDN is possible, for example:
Dynamically create, secure and connect networks
Define policies to control physical and virtual networks
Scale network policies
Accelerate deployment of workloads
Minimize network security risks
Encrypted Networks for secure encryption of virtual networks via Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS)
Software-Defined Storage
Software-Defined Storage (SDS) in Windows Server 2019 decouples storage hardware from storage software. This allows data storage to be managed, scaled and provisioned independently of the underlying storage hardware. This also allows it to be easily replaced or expanded without changing operations, which also contributes to cost efficiency.
Storage Replica
In Windows Server 2019 Datacenter, the Storage Replica feature is available without limitation. This supports both synchronous and asynchronous replication of data, effectively preventing its loss at the file system level. While synchronous replication mirrors data at physical locations with fail-safe volumes, asynchronous replication between locations uses network links with higher latency. Disaster Preparedness and Recovery (DR) also minimizes the risk of downtime.
Storage Spaces Direct (S2D)
Storage Spaces Direct combines the local data storage of Server into a virtual cluster. Its nodes can connect different physical data carriers or data carrier systems, and communication between them takes place via the SMB protocol. S2D thus offers increased fail-safety, so that even several cluster nodes can fail in the event of a large number without the cluster itself being affected.
In addition to the simple implementation and management of software-defined storage (SDS) systems, Storage Spaces Direct also enables the creation of scalable, highly available storage systems, whereby the Server storage can be used independently of its hardware and thus more efficiently.

For this, the following important features are also available with maximum functionality:
Enhanced protection in the Cloud with Shielded Virtual Machines
Shielded VMs (Virtual Machines) enable the creation of highly secured virtualization infrastructures. Virtual Server are thus secured in such a way that data and applications stored in a public Cloud are reliably protected against unauthorized access or use. Existing VMs can also be converted to Shielded VMs and protected Linux VMs can also be created. The installation of Shielded VMs is done with the Server-Manager, in the Windows Admin Center or via PowerShell.
Software Defined Networking
The Software-Defined Networking (SDN) feature enables centralized configuration of both physical (such as routers, switches and gateways) and virtual network devices and elements (such as Hyper-V virtual switches, Hyper-V network virtualization and RAS gateways) as well as their dynamic management in Windows Server 2022 . Existing SDN-compliant devices can be used to achieve greater integration between the physical and virtual networks, as network layers are no longer tied to network devices. Windows Server in this regard, 2022 Datacenter Edition provides the ability to peer and seamlessly connect two networks, as well as firewall monitoring.
With SDN is possible, for example:
Dynamically create, secure and connect networks
Define policies to control physical and virtual networks
Scale network policies
Accelerate deployment of workloads
Minimize network security risks
Encrypted Networks for secure encryption of virtual networks via Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS)
Software-Defined Storage
Software-Defined Storage (SDS) in Windows Server 2022 decouples storage hardware from storage software. As a result, data storage can be managed, scaled and provisioned independently of the underlying storage hardware. It can also be easily replaced or expanded without changing operational processes, which also contributes to cost efficiency.
Storage Replica
In Windows Server 2022 Datacenter, the Storage Replica function is available without restriction. This supports both synchronous and asynchronous replication of data, effectively preventing its loss at the file system level. While synchronous replication mirrors data at physical locations with fail-safe volumes, asynchronous replication between locations uses network links with higher latency. Disaster Preparedness and Recovery (DR) also minimizes the risk of downtime.
Storage Spaces Direct (S2D)
Storage Spaces Direct combines the local data storage of Server into a virtual cluster. Its nodes can connect different physical data carriers or data carrier systems, and communication between them takes place via the SMB protocol. S2D thus offers increased fail-safety, so that even several cluster nodes can fail in the event of a large number without the cluster itself being affected.
In addition to the simple implementation and management of software-defined storage (SDS) systems, Storage Spaces Direct also enables the creation of scalable, highly available storage systems, whereby the Server storage can be used independently of its hardware and thus more efficiently.

Furthermore, VBS enables the use of Credential Guard, where user login information is stored in a virtual container that cannot be accessed directly by the operating system.
HTTPS and TLS 1.3 are now enabled by default on Windows Server 2022 Standard to ensure secure connections. TLS1.3 (Transport Layer Security) is the latest version of the most widely used security protocol on the Internet when encrypting data to provide a secure communication channel between two endpoints.
Secure DNS in Windows Server 2022 Standard supports DoH (DNS-over-HTTPS) to encrypt DNS queries using the HTTPS protocol, preventing eavesdropping and DNS data tampering, which also contributes to traffic security.
SMB (Server Message Block) in Windows Server 2022 now uses the AES-256-GCM and AES-256-CCM standards for encryption, these are automatically used as soon as a connection is established with another computer that also supports them.
Encryption using SMB Direct and RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) in Windows Server 2022 provides higher bandwidth as well as lower latency for direct storage, storage replica, Hyper-V and SQL Server, among others.
In addition, failover clusters in Windows Server 2022 enable granular encryption control of CSV (Cluster Shared Volumes,) and SBL (Storage Bus Layer).
Container applications in Windows Server 2022 Standard
There are also numerous optimizations to the platform when using Windows containers, for example in application compatibility as well as the Windows container user interface with Kubernetes.
The image size of Windows-Containers has been reduced up to 40%, which increases startup time by 30% as well as improves performance.
The use of Kubernetes has been simplified by, among other things, better support of containers for host processes when configuring nodes, IPv6 as well as the implementation of network policies with the open source application Calico.
In addition, the Windows Admin Center has been updated to simplify container creation for .NET applications.
Storage and migration in Windows Server 2022 Standard
Many improvements to Storage Migration Services in Windows Server 2022 make it easier to migrate storage to Windows Server as well as other source storage locations to Azure, among other things. To do this, the Storage Migration Server orchestrator in Windows Server 2022 provides the following options:
Migrate local users or groups to Windows Server
Migrating storage to and from failover clusters, as well as migrating between standalone servers and failover clusters
Migrating storage from Linux servers that use Samba
Migrating to Azure networks
Migrating NetApp CIFS servers or NetApp FAS arrays to Windows Server
Other features:
Customizable storage repair speed provides more control over the data synchronization process: resources can be allocated to repair data copies (resilience) or to run active workloads (performance). Clusters can thus be managed more flexibly and efficiently.
Storage bus cache now provides storage on standalone servers, improving read and write performance and increasing efficiency by connecting faster media such as NVMe or SSD to slower media such as HDD.
SMB compression eliminates the need to manually compress files when transferring them over the network, allowing for faster transfers on busy networks, for example.
Other improvements in Windows Server 2022 Standard
In addition, the new Windows Server 2022 version includes a number of individual optimizations that also improve performance:
Nested Virtualization support on AMD processors in Windows Server 2022 provides more options in environment hardware to run Hyper-V on a Hyper-V virtual machine (VM).
Microsoft Edge is included by default in Windows Server 2022. Edge is based on Chromium open source and provides more security than Internet Explorer, which it replaces.
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) performance has been improved with the use of TCP HyStart++, which reduces packet loss, and with RACK (Recent ACKnowledgment) to reduce retransmit timeouts (RTO) during retransmissions.
RSC (Receive Segment Coalescing) provides optimizations for virtual switches in Hyper-V, allowing packets to be aggregated in the hypervisor network and thus processed as larger segments. This reduces CPU cycles and improves network traffic performance.
Hardware requirements for running Windows Server 2022 Standard
Windows Server 2022 is based on the Windows 10 operating system. To take advantage of all the features of the Server application and to ensure security, the underlying hardware must meet all the minimum requirements listed below. Additional requirements depend on the particular system configuration as well as other installed applications.
Processor: 1.4 GHz 64-bit
Memory: 512 MB (2 GB for Server with Desktop installation option)
HDD: 32 GB free hard disk space
BIOS: UEFI system with secure boot (UEFI 2.3.1c) for certain features
Graphics card and monitor: 1,024 x 768 pixels
Licensing from Windows Server 2022 Standard
The licensing of a server with the new Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition is also carried out as used software in accordance with the Microsoft license provisions, whereby the number of cores is used as a benchmark for calculating the license requirement. The following provisions shall apply:
The Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition is generally licensed on the basis of the physical hardware used. In addition to the number of physical Core processors, the number of virtual Server processors is also taken into account.
A Server license always covers 2 physical processor cores.
According to the Microsoft license terms, a minimum number of 8 cores Pro processor is always taken as a basis - even if the actually existing hardware has less than 8 cores.
At least 2 processors are assumed for each physical Server, which results in the minimum number of 16 cores.
Serverhardware with more than 16 cores must be additionally licensed with corresponding packages to Windows Server 2022 Standard.

Microsoft Windows Server 2022 Standard 2-Core
Flexibly supplement your licensing needs for Windows Server 2022 Standard with the 2-Core packages from Softwarehandel24! The Standard edition of Windows Server 2022 has been developed especially for use in smaller data centers: it accordingly offers sufficient possibilities for virtualization, combined with good scalability, strong performance as well as effective security layers, as required for the reliable protection of data and applications in multi-Cloud environments.
The server operating system Windows Server 2022 Standard combines physical and virtual networks for the provision of data and services via Cloud-based Server and is thus ideally suited to meet the IT requirements of SMEs. With Windows 10 as the operating system, many optimizations as well as new, powerful functions, this edition is thus ideally equipped for all workloads.
Important decision factor for the purchase of the Standard Edition of Windows Server 2022 are the available possibilities for virtualization - among other things by means of containers. Thus, this represents indispensable functions especially for smaller companies that want to provide reliable infrastructures in this area as well.
Windows Server 2022 enables companies in the Standard edition to more closely connect on-premises environments with the Cloud, including via the Microsoft Azure Services, which provide additional hybrid functions as well as security layers.
Licensing of the Windows Server 2022 Standard edition is Core-based, whereby Pro Server is always based on 16 cores as the minimum number. Server with a higher number of cores can be conveniently and flexibly licensed in addition with 2-Core packages.
The Windows Server 2022 Standard 2-Core Package can be found at Softwarehandel24 as used software - with the great advantage of a significantly lower price than for corresponding new software - and without any differences in all typical features that this edition offers in terms of functions - especially in virtualization -, security and performance. Detailed information about all features and functions of Windows Server 2022 Standard edition as well as about Microsoft licensing conditions applicable to 2-Core packages is provided in the following overview.
Windows Server 2022 Standard for the operation of multi-Cloud environments
The Windows Server 2022 Standard edition also offers some virtualization capabilities, including data and application security, at a higher level than its predecessor: many enhancements and additions to features already known there, as well as the ability to create software-defined hyperconverged (HCI) infrastructure platforms over it; these offer even more advantages for Server- and Desktop-virtualization through easier deployment and scaling, as well as better manageability.
Comparison: What features does Windows Server 2022 Standard offer?
The decision to purchase the Standard edition of Windows Server 2022 is usually influenced by the fact that certain virtualization features are either not available or only available in limited performance: Hyper-V, for example, can only be used here to a very limited extent, and the same applies to Shielded Virtual Machines (VMs) as well as Storage Spaces Direct and storage replication, as well as SDN (Software Defined Networking) and SDS
(Software Defined Storage).
Virtualization options with Windows Server 2022 Standard
Basically, the Windows Server 2022 Edition Standard offers limited virtualization - it is therefore designed more for companies where this plays a minor role. Therefore, the number of virtual machines and Hyper-V containers that can be run is also limited here, with a RAM limit of 24 TB, as in the more comprehensive edition. For more on this, see below.
Storage Replica
In Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition, the Storage Replica storage function is available with restrictions, but Storage Spaces Direct is not supported. Storage Replica supports both synchronous and asynchronous replication of data and prevents data loss at the file system level: synchronous replication mirrors data at physical locations with a fail-safe volume, and asynchronous replication performs this function between locations over network links with higher latency.
Other new features of Windows Server 2022 Standard
Also available in the Windows Server 2022 Standard edition are the following key features for analytics, container use and hybrid infrastructure unification:
System Insights for comprehensive Server analysis
In Windows Server 2022, the predictive analytics feature System Insights is available for this purpose, which is supported by a machine learning model for more efficient functioning. System Insights allows comprehensive insights into the operation of locally deployed Server by analyzing performance indicators and events to make accurate predictions for the reactive management of Windows Server instances, which can lead to a reduction in effort and thus help organizations reduce operational costs.
Support for Kubernetes and Linux
Windows Server 2022 also offers comprehensive container support in the Standard edition. When using Hyper-V containers, however, it is important to note that the license for the Standard edition only allows 2 containers, as only 2 virtual machines (VMs) are allowed for them; also, no support for host monitoring is included. Windows Containers, on the other hand, can be operated in unlimited numbers.
In addition, Kubernetes and Linux are now supported more comprehensively, so that Linux and Windows containers managed with Kubernetes can be used in parallel. Specifically for Kubernetes, new features such as container networking are also available in the Standard edition, among others.
Greater data and network protection with Azure Services
With Azure, hybrid capabilities are also available in Windows Server 2022 Standard to work seamlessly in an on-premises data center as well as in Cloud. Azure alone provides a Cloud with an end-to-end hybrid infrastructure with unified security, identity and management capabilities:
Azure Active Directory enables universal management and protection of identities with help across multiple environments.
Azure Arc allows Azure management and Azure services to be extended to any infrastructure.
Through the Windows Admin Center, Azure services such as Azure Backup, Azure Site Recovery, and Azure Monitor can be enabled quickly and easily.
Thus, Azure Services in Windows Server 2022 Standard not only provide improved protection of on-premises Active Directorys, but also easier synchronization and backup of data.
Hardware requirements for installing and running Windows Server 2022 Standard
Windows Server 2022 is based on the Windows 10 operating system. For unrestricted and secure use of Windows Server 2022 Standard, the underlying hardware must meet all of the minimum requirements listed below. Other requirements are additionally dependent on the respective system configuration as well as other installed applications.
Hard disk space: 32 GB
Random access memory (RAM): 512 MB
Disk space for Server desktop display: 2 GB
Processor: 64-bit architecture
Processor speed: 1.4 GHz
Graphics card: 1,024 x 768 pixels, support for Super VGA
Network card: Gigabit Ethernet, 1x
Licensing with Windows Server 2022 Standard 2-Core Package
The licensing of a server with Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition is also done for used software according to the Microsoft license terms: The number of cores is used as the basis for calculating the license requirement. The following terms and conditions apply.
General Microsoft license terms for Windows Server 2022 Standard
A Server software such as the Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition is always licensed on the basis of the physical hardware used. In addition to the number of physical Core processors, the number of virtual Server processors is also taken into account. Each Server license covers 2 physical processor cores. In accordance with the Microsoft license terms, a minimum number of 8 cores Pro processor is always taken as a basis - even if the existing hardware has fewer than 8 cores. Further for each physical Server at least 2 processors are used, from which the minimum number of 16 cores results.
Serverif the number of cores is higher than 16, the license must be supplemented with 2-Core packages to Windows Server 2022 Standard.
Additional licensing requirements for Windows Server 2022 Standard
In a Hyper-V environment, all processors must be licensed that correspond to the physical processor cores. The Windows Server Standard edition entitles you to run a maximum of two Hyper-V instances Pro Core license. If more Hyper-V instances are required with the Standard edition, all active cores must be re-licensed for this purpose.
In addition to the Windows Server Standard license, all clients - User as well as endpoints - that access Windows Server 2022 must also be provided with their own client access license (CAL). These User and Device CALs are also available used at Softwarehandel24 at a reasonable price.
