Windows Server 2022 - Retail version | Software & License
Windows Server 2022: is the newest version of Microsoft's cloud-ready network operating system. Released on August 18th, 2021, it builds on the capabilities of its predecessor, Windows Server 2019, introducing several new enhancements to modernize IT infrastructure and operations. One of the most significant features of Windows Server 2022 is its enhanced security, with new layers of protection that provide robust protection against cybersecurity threats. It also supports compliance with regulatory standards such as HIPAA and GDPR, making it an ideal choice for organizations that need to meet industry-specific requirements. In addition, Windows Server 2022 offers improved virtualization capabilities, enhanced support for hybrid cloud scenarios, and better performance and scalability. Its design ensures a consistent experience across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments, providing the best of both worlds by allowing organizations to benefit from the cloud while maintaining control over their data and infrastructure. Another major advantage of Windows Server 2022 is its default enabled HTTPS and TLS 1.3, which protects data in client-server communication, and the capability to serve DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH), which encrypts DNS queries using the HTTPS protocol. These features make it a reliable and secure network operating system that helps organizations streamline their operations and improve their security.
