Windows Server 2022 is the latest version of the server operating system developed by Microsoft Corporation, designed to provide powerful and reliable infrastructure services for businesses and organizations of all sizes. Released in August 2021, Windows Server 2022 builds upon the strengths of its predecessors while introducing new features, enhancements, and improvements to meet the evolving needs of modern IT environments.

The homepage for Windows Server 2022 is s://www.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/windows-server(https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/windows-server), where users can find information about the features, editions, and licensing options available for Windows Server 2022. Additionally, the source code for Windows Server is not publicly available on GitHub, as it is proprietary software developed by Microsoft Corporation.

Windows Server 2022 is designed to provide a scalable and resilient platform for running mission-critical workloads, such as enterprise applications, databases, virtualization, and cloud services. It offers enhanced security, performance, and management capabilities to help organizations maximize the efficiency and reliability of their IT infrastructure.

One of the key features of Windows Server 2022 is enhanced security, with built-in protection against a wide range of threats, including malware, ransomware, and advanced persistent threats (APTs). Windows Defender Antivirus, Windows Defender Exploit Guard, and Windows Defender Firewall are included as part of the operating system, providing comprehensive protection for servers and virtual machines.

Windows Server 2022 also introduces several new security features, such as secured-core server, which helps protect against firmware-level attacks by ensuring that only trusted code can run on the system. Additionally, the new encryption technology, called Secured-core Server Encryption, helps protect data at rest and in transit by encrypting it using industry-standard encryption algorithms.

Performance improvements are another highlight of Windows Server 2022, with optimizations for faster file access, improved networking performance, and enhanced support for high-performance computing (HPC) workloads. The operating system includes features such as SMB Direct, SMB Multichannel, and SMB over QUIC, which enable faster and more efficient file sharing and storage.

Windows Server 2022 also introduces several new management features and tools to simplify server administration and reduce management overhead. The new Windows Admin Center provides a unified management interface for managing servers, clusters, and virtual machines from a single, web-based console.

Another key focus of Windows Server 2022 is hybrid cloud integration, with features that enable seamless integration between on-premises infrastructure and cloud services. Windows Server 2022 includes built-in support for Azure Arc, which allows organizations to manage and monitor their on-premises servers using Azure management tools and services.

Containerization is another area of emphasis in Windows Server 2022, with support for Docker containers and Kubernetes orchestration. Windows Server 2022 includes container runtime and management features that make it easier to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications in production environments.

Hyper-V, Microsoft's hypervisor-based virtualization platform, is enhanced in Windows Server 2022 with new features and improvements to increase scalability, performance, and security. Hyper-V now supports up to 48 TB of memory per physical server and up to 2,048 virtual machines per cluster, making it ideal for large-scale virtualization deployments.

Windows Server 2022 also includes improvements to storage management, with features such as Storage Migration Service, Storage Spaces Direct, and Storage Replica. These features enable organizations to simplify storage management, improve data protection, and reduce storage costs by leveraging software-defined storage technologies.

Networking enhancements in Windows Server 2022 include improvements to network performance, reliability, and security. The operating system includes features such as Azure Virtual WAN, which provides simplified connectivity to Azure resources, and Network Security Groups (NSGs), which enable fine-grained control over network traffic.

Windows Server 2022 offers a range of deployment options, including physical servers, virtual machines, and cloud-based environments. It is available in several editions, including Standard, Datacenter, and Essentials, each tailored to meet the specific needs and requirements of different organizations.

Overall, Windows Server 2022 is a comprehensive and feature-rich server operating system that provides organizations with a flexible and scalable platform for running their business-critical workloads. With its enhanced security, performance, and management capabilities, Windows Server 2022 enables organizations to optimize their IT infrastructure and drive innovation in their digital transformation journey.

Snippet from Wikipedia: Windows Server 2022

Windows Server 2022 is the thirteenth and current major long term servicing channel (LTSC) release of the Windows Server operating system by Microsoft Corporation, as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems. It was announced at Microsoft's Ignite event from March 2–4, 2021. It was released on August 18, 2021, almost 3 years after Windows Server 2019, and a few months before the Windows 11 operating system.

Windows Server 2022 is based on the "Iron" codebase. Its updates are incompatible with the Windows 10 operating system, as the "Iron" codebase was not used for it. Like its predecessor, Windows Server 2019, it requires x64 processors.
