This is a brand new
and factory sealed package of Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Essentials. It
is the full retail version--NOT Academic, OEM, Not For Resale, Trial,
Promotional, or Upgrade. This is exactly what you would buy in major retail
stores and online sellers. The Microsoft SKU is G3S-00936.
Please Note: This listing is for 1 sealed package. The
picture shows multiple quantities because I want to show all sides of the
package.
Windows Server 2016 Essentials Edition is a
cloud-connected first server system that is ideal for small businesses with no
more than 25 users and 50 devices. 2016 Essentials is an excellent option for
customers currently using the Foundation edition, which is not available with
Windows Server 2016.
Some of the new features integrated with
Windows Server 2016 Essentials include:
Azure Site Recovery Services
When a virtual machine that is protected from threats
stops working, or the host server that it all runs on fails, Azure Site
Recovery Services allows users to maintain business continuity until the
virtual machine or host server on-premises is repaired and made available.
Azure Site Recovery Services, a feature in Microsoft Azure, allows a
replication of your virtual machines (VM) to be done in real time and sends it
to a backup vault in Azure. If your server or site goes down due to faulty
hardware or another failure, you can fail-over with Azure Site Recovery so that
the virtual machine image stored in your backup vault will be provisioned as a
running VM in Microsoft Azure. Combined with an Azure Virtual Network, client
PCs that previously connected to the server on-premises will connect to the
server running in Azure.
Azure Virtual Network
As organizations transfer their workloads to cloud
computing, they seldom move all of their resources all at once. They instead
move some resources to the cloud and keep some on the premises. It's much
easier to move an organization to the cloud in stages over time. Azure Virtual
Network integration provides the network infrastructure that makes that process
seamless and manageable. Azure Virtual networking is a service that enables
organizations to create a point-to-point (P2P) or site-to-site (S2S) virtual
private network that makes resources that are running in Azure (such as virtual
machines and storage) look as though they are on the local network for seamless
access to applications and resources.
Larger Deployments Support
Some medium-sized businesses need more functionality and
capacity to implement Windows Server Essentials. Windows Server 2016 Essentials
provides increases the manageability of domains, users, and devices by adding
support for larger deployments with multiple domains and domain controllers as well
as ability to specify a designated domain controller.
