Windows Server :

Windows Server is a server operating system developed by Microsoft and designed to provide a platform for running network services such as file and print sharing, web and application servers, database management, and other enterprise-level applications.

There are several different versions, including Server 2019, Server 2016, Server 2012 R2, and Server 2008 R2. Each version provides unique features and capabilities, and the choice of which version to use depends on the needs of the organization.

Some of the key features of Windows Server include Active Directory, which provides a centralized management system for user accounts, security groups, and other network resources; Hyper-V, which allows virtual machines to create and manage on a single physical server; and Remote Desktop Services, which allows users to access applications and desktops remotely.

Also includes several tools and utilities for managing and monitoring server performance and security, as well as backup and recovery capabilities to help ensure business continuity in the event of a system failure.

Installing Windows Server:

It involves several steps, including preparing the server hardware, creating installation media, and running the installation process. Here is a general overview of the installation process:

1. Check the hardware requirements:

Make sure that the server hardware meets the minimum requirements for the version of Windows Server you plan to install. You should also ensure that all necessary drivers and firmware are available and up to date.

2. Create installation media:

You can buy and download an ISO image of the Windows Server installation files from Microsoft’s website and then create a bootable USB drive or DVD from that ISO. You can use a tool such as the Windows USB/DVD Download Tool or Rufus to create the bootable media.

3. Boot the server from the installation media:

Insert the bootable USB drive or DVD into the server and restart it. Press the key to enter the server’s BIOS or UEFI firmware settings and make sure that the server is set to boot from the installation media.

4. Run the Windows Server setup:

Once the server boots from the installation media, you can prompt to choose the language, time zone, and other basic settings. You will then need to select the installation type, partition the hard drive, and choose the destination drive to install Windows Server.

5. Configure the server:

After the installation is complete, you can prompt to create a user account and password, and you can configure additional settings such as network settings and domain membership.

Install additional software and updates:

Once Windows Server is installed, you can install additional software and updates as you need, and configure any services or roles required by your organization.

It’s important to note that the exact installation process may vary depending on the specific version of Windows Server, the server hardware, and any custom requirements for your organization. Therefore, it’s always a promising idea to consult the official documentation or seek the assistance of a qualified IT professional.
