Features

► Nano Server Option.

► Azure Site Recovery Services

Offered in Microsoft Azure, this feature enables real-time replication of your virtual machines (VM) to a backup vault in Azure. 

► Storage Spaces Direct

Create a highly scalable software-defined storage unit without going over budget. With features such as caching, storage tiers, and erasure coding, this technology works with industry-standard servers with local-attached drives.

► Volume activation

► Cluster Rolling Upgrade

This update allows you to upgrade the operating system of cluster nodes without needing to stop the Hyper-V or Scale-Out File Server workloads running on the nodes and minimize downtimes. This doesn’t require additional hardware, nor a new cluster and is reversible unless you choose the “point-of-no-return”.

► Increased manageability of domains, users and devices

Meant to help larger small businesses take full advantage of Microsoft Windows Server Essentials 2016 by adding support for larger deployment with multiple domains, multiple domain controllers, and the ability to specify a designated domain controller.
