Windows Server This section provides information on Windows Server from Lenovo: Features Feature codes for configure-to-order Part numbers for Reseller Option Kits Windows Server is built on the strong foundation of Windows Server and brings many innovations on three key themes: security, Azure hybrid integration and management, and application platform.

Features Enhanced security capabilities For IT professionals, security and compliance are primary concerns. Secure-core server – A Secured-core server uses hardware, firmware, and driver capabilities to enable advanced Windows Server security features. Many of these features are available in Windows Secured-core PCs and are now also available with Secured-core server hardware and Windows Server Hardware root-of-trust – Trusted Platform Module 2.

TPM 2. Firmware protection – Firmware executes with high privileges and is often invisible to traditional anti-virus solutions, which has led to a rise in the number of firmware-based attacks.

Azure Hybrid Capabilities You can increase your efficiency and agility with built-in hybrid capabilities in Windows Server that allow you to extend your data centers to Azure more easily than ever before. This management experience is designed to be consistent with how you manage native Azure virtual machines. When a hybrid machine is connected to Azure, it becomes a connected machine and is treated as a resource in Azure.

More information can be found at the Azure Arc enables servers documentation. Windows Admin Center – Improvements to Windows Admin Center to manage Windows Server include capabilities to report on the current state of the Secured-core features, and where applicable, allow customers to enable the features.

More information on these and many more improvements to Windows Admin Center can be found at the Windows Admin Center documentation. Application platform There are several platform improvements for Windows Containers, including application compatibility and the Windows Container experience with Kubernetes.
