Microsoft Gold-Certified Consultants
Microsoft Windows Server 2022 Consulting:
Planning, Deployment, Management and Troubleshooting
Microsoft Windows Server 2022 builds on the technology behind Microsoft Windows Server 2019 and associated tools and services to offer enhancements in key areas such as in-depth security, integrated compatibility in Azure for popular Windows applications, consistent management for hybrid and multi-cloud network models, plus greater availability for Microsoft Azure-hosted VMs.
Notable improvements in Windows Server 2022 and associated products include:
- Secured-core server hardware guards against new-generation security attacks
- Default Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 and HTTPS hardens security for communication connections
- AES-256-GCM and AES-256-CCM secure cipher suites provide military-grade Server Message Block (SMB) encryption
- DNS-over-HTTPS permits DNS queries between Windows Server 2022's DNS client and the DNS server to go across an encrypted HTTPS connection rather than in simple text. This protects the DNS query from eavesdropping by untrusted parties.
- The release of Azure Arc enables you to administer physical and virtual Windows Server 2022 and Linux servers running outside Azure (such as at your datacenter and on multiple cloud providers) the same way you manage Azure-based VMs, giving you a unified management toolset throughout your hybrid network
- Hotpatching support increases uptime by allowing you to implement scheduled updates on new Windows Server Azure Edition VMs without the requirement to restart after patching
- Reducing the Windows Container image size by up to 40% results in faster startup and higher performance
- Revamped Windows Admin Center simplifies the procedure for containerizing .NET applications
- The new Storage bus cache for standalone servers (not servers in a Failover Cluster) can, as with Storage Spaces Direct, cache inexpensive media with fast solid-state disks (SSDs) to speed up read/write throughput affordably. For a discussion of Storage Spaces Direct, refer to Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Storage Spaces Direct experts.
Progent's certified Windows Server experts can help your business to integrate Windows Server 2022 with current releases of Microsoft's core applications by providing support such as Exchange Server integration, SQL Server 2019 expertise, SharePoint 2019 solution design, and Microsoft 365 expertise. Progent's consulting, debugging, and training services for Windows Server 2022 are available remotely and Progent also offers on-premises consulting for Microsoft technologies in larger metropolitan locations throughout the United States and Canada.
Managing a Hybrid Cloud Environment that Includes Windows Server 2022
You can integrate Windows Server 2022 into a cohesive hybrid ecosystem by deploying Azure Arc. Azure Arc offers unified management of governance, cybersecurity, setup, and monitoring for both Windows and Linux physical servers or VMs across your hybrid network. This includes servers running in your datacenter, on Microsoft Azure, on multiple public clouds like AWS EC2 and Google Cloud, or in various edge scenarios. By running the Azure Connected Machine agent on every registered server, you can build a consistent management experience that treats every machine in a hybrid environment as an Azure resource that can benefit from standard Azure constructs such as Azure Policy and the application of tags.
Planning, deploying, administering, and troubleshooting efficient hybrid networks that incorporate Windows Server 2022 all demand in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience that is outside the skill set of typical network support groups in small and midsize organizations. Progent's group of subject-matter experts can provide on-demand guidance for any facet of hybrid network design and configuration. Progent's Microsoft-certified and Cisco-certified engineers, project managers, and network security experts can assist your business to assess the potential advantages of Windows Server 2022 for your company and build and manage a hybrid IT environment that incorporates Microsoft Windows Server 2022 and that delivers optimum return on investment.
Windows Server 2022 Upgrade Services from Progent
If you require guidance migrating to Windows Server 2022 from an earlier release of Windows Server, Progent can provide the knowledge to make your migration efficient, economical, and on time. Progent can help your organization to:
- Inventory all workloads and server roles on your existing Windows Servers
- Migrate your virtual machine from earlier versions of Windows Server to Windows Server 2022
- Review compliance and harden security across hybrid workloads
- Plan a server management solution built around the most appropriate technologies for your network model
Windows Server 2022 is available in Standard, Datacenter, and Datacenter: Azure Edition versions. The Datacenter versions include Software-defined Networking (SDN), Host Guardian Hyper-V Support, and Storage Spaces Direct. Both Datacenter editions also allow unlimited VMs and Hyper-V isolated Containers (as opposed two each for Microsoft's Standard Edition). Only Windows Server 2022 Datacenter: Azure Edition has Hotpatching. Most of these features are described in Windows Server 2016 integration expertise.
Two install modes available for Microsoft Windows Server 2022 are Server Core and Server with Desktop Experience. Server Core works with standard applications and role-based workloads but does not have a local desktop interface. This "headless" version has the advantage of a small size and a correspondingly small attack area, but Server Core needs to be managed remotely via the command line, PowerShell, or a GUI tool such as Windows Admin Center. Microsoft's Server with Desktop Experience option is a full version and features a rich GUI that allows local management. Progent's experts can assist you to choose the editions and install options best fitted for your situation, become familiar with Microsoft's licensing requirements, and design a resilient on-premises, cloud-hosted, or hybrid network architecture for Microsoft Windows Server 2022.
