Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Standard Core

Please note that the Server 2019 Core edition does not include a GUI/no desktop and must be controlled, maintained, and activated via console.

The new Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Standard Core is the evolution of the popular operating system Windows Server 2016. It is suitable for most infrastructure scenarios and also for workloads such as Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft SharePoint. In addition to the security standards of Windows Server 2016, efficient features for protection against threats are provided. The virtual machines (VMs) have been further developed to protect sensitive applications. Linux VMs are now also supported. Administrators can easily encrypt network segments between servers. The Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) has been newly introduced. This provides proactive protection against attacks and zero-day exploits in Windows Server 2019 Standard and allows for centralized management of the entire security cycle.

The 2019 version of Windows Server enables hybrid cloud scenarios. The basis is the 2017 introduced Project Honolulu. Existing Windows Server environments can be easily connected to the new cloud services. This allows the user to integrate Azure Backup, Disaster Recovery, Azure File Sync, and other Microsoft services seamlessly into existing infrastructures and applications. The software "Project Honolulu" was officially introduced alongside the release of Windows Server 2019. This server management tool is a central interface for managing servers running under Windows 2019, 2016, or 2012 R2, with or without a GUI. Typical tasks such as performance monitoring or server configuration are simplified as they are designed differently in Project Honolulu. Managing Windows services in architectures with mixed servers has also been made easier.
Smaller containers and HCI infrastructures

Windows Server 2019 Standard core supports developers more than ever in modernizing existing applications when working with container technologies. The server core base container images of the operating system serve this purpose. Images can be reduced to one-third of their current size. This also reduces the download time by about 72 percent. Support is also available for the open-source container system Kubernetes. Hyper-converged infrastructures (HCI) are already known from Windows Server 2016 and the Windows Server Software Defined program. Preconfigured HCI solutions are also useful in Windows Server 2019. They help meet computing and storage requirements and are easy to implement and scale. They can also be managed through Project Honolulu, significantly simplifying daily work with HCI implementations.
Windows Server 2019 expands performance and reliability

It is also possible to use it as a Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH). This allows Windows-based programs or the entire desktop to be shared among users when running on the host. The new features for storage management are also interesting. The Storage Migration Services (SMS) allow for the updating of old file servers to version 2019. Data, access rights, and settings are transferred. The storage migration transfers the identity of the old server to a new one, allowing the previous machine to be taken off the network. The necessary tool is included in the Honolulu tools. Windows Server 2019 Standard also offers the feature Storage Replica. It was already included in the Datacenter edition of Windows Server 2016 and serves for block-based replication of volumes between servers and clusters. The server core installation option described here does not include a local graphical desktop interface.
