Microsoft has come up with a new version of its server operating system. It has shifted to a more gradual upgrade of Windows Server. It is fabricated on the strong foundation of Windows Server 2016 and brings numerous innovations that could have a huge impact on Windows Server users.
- System insight is a predictive analytics feature in Windows Server 2019 which uses a machine-learning model – to locally analyze Windows Server system data, like the performance counters and events of your servers. It offers insight into the functioning of servers and assist you with the address issues in the environment proactively.
- Enhance security and lessen business risk with numerous layers of protection built in the operating system.
- Storage Migration is a new technology that makes it easier to migrate servers to a newer version of Windows Server.
- Kubernetes platform support with major improvements to computing, storage, and networking components.
- It is really possible to run Windows and Linux based containers on the same host, utilizing the same docker daemon. This allows you to have a heterogenous container host environment while providing flexibility to application developers.
- Evolve your datacenter infrastructure to get better efficiency and scale with Hyper-converged Infrastructure (HCI).
- HCI is offered on the top of the components that are bundled with the server license. This means servers running HyperV to enable dynamic increase or decrease of capacity for workloads without downtime.
- It enables developers and IT pros to create cloud native applications and modernize their traditional apps using containers and micro-services.
- For the first time ever, Windows Server 2019 is offering Storage Migration Service, which helps keep inventory during data migration.
- Windows Server 2019 supports USB Thumb drive which allows 2 node HCI deployments with no extra dependencies.
- Virtual Network Peering is one of the new feature that gives high-speed connectivity between two virtual networks. The traffic between the two networks surpass through the underlying fabric network with no gateway, however the virtual networks must be a part of the same datacenter stamp.
