Windows Server is the operating system that connects local environments to Azure services, enabling hybrid scenarios that maximize existing investments. Increase security and reduce business risk with multi-layered protection built into the Operating System. Upgrade your data center infrastructure with Hyper Converged Infrastructure for greater efficiency and scale. It allows developers and IT professionals to create cloud-based applications and upgrade their traditional applications using containers and micro-products.
Microsoft Server 2019 Standard is the average price level of all three. However, it is very similar to the most comprehensive version of Windows Server , Datacenter.
This innovative software easily manages cloud-based tasks, making it ideal for companies. The standard version is perfect for physical or virtualized environments. This means that medium and large enterprises have multiple access to the server. Users have access to great features such as server virtualization, web application platforms, virtual desktops, server management, and more.
Windows Server Standard Edition provides a complete server platform that is easy to install, manage, and use. It allows companies to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO).Thanks in part to the support of third-party hardware and software partners manufactured by Microsoft, Windows Server helps users get the most out of their investment on the server.
Designed for small organizations and departments, Windows Server Standard Edition offers intelligent file and printer sharing, secure Internet connectivity, centralized deployment of desktop applications, and web solutions that connect employees, partners, and customers. Windows Server Standard Edition offers a high level of reliability, scalability, and security.
Enhanced Security
Standard Edition is installed with layered security to help block server attacks and system breaches. Protects the cloud by detecting suspicious activity in which only trusted Software can run with Device Guard.
Control Flow Guard protects against external and internal memory attacks. A multilevel system helps protect data integrity.
Efficient data center The key features
of Standard Server 2019 are speed and flexibility with an efficient data center. The operating system adapts to your needs, at a lower cost due to the many functions of calculation, storage and network.
You can automatically transfer network control layers from hardware to software without setting switches. It has strong storage and a powerful server with Operating Systems, which has software-defined storage capabilities. Cloud-
based
applications The standard version has several cloud-based applications that allow existing applications to run safely on Windows Server 2019 without the need for changes. You can move existing applications to the DevOps environment without seeing the effects of the change. If you need to use different applications, the server allows you to create cloud-based and hybrid applications.
Product activation
Make Windows Server evaluation editions standard
If, like me, you quickly created a new server or virtual machine by downloading a Microsoft evaluator, you'll find that when you get the license key and try to connect it, it won't work. You simply cannot use an otherwise valid key on a Windows Server evaluation instance .
But don't worry, the solution is pretty simple. You only need to run this command from a high command prompt:
DISM / online / Set-Edition: <edition ID> / ProductKey: XXXXX -XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX / AcceptEula
The edition ID will be ServerStandard , then enter the product key. The server runs the image conversion process and then restarts it twice.
After restarting the server, you must reactivate the server and re-enter the key.
It is important to note that if you used an evaluation version to build a domain controller, you cannot change the version. You must either create a new domain controller, or replace the domain controller for the trial version, set the version ID, and then promote it again.
This key can activate the ONE Windows device only once. Once the activation process is complete, you CANNOT use the same key again. Formatting the hard disk actually deletes the key. You cannot transfer the license to another computer.
