Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Datacenter – Global key

Windows Server 2019 Datacenter is the edition intended for heavily virtualised environments and private data centres. Its essential difference from the Standard edition lies in virtualisation rights: Datacenter allows an unlimited number of Windows Server virtual machines on the licensed host, where Standard stops at two. Beyond three or four VMs per host, the Datacenter edition therefore becomes the most consistent solution.

Main features

• Unlimited virtualisation — as many Windows Server virtual machines as the hardware can support.
• Storage Spaces Direct — a hyper-converged storage cluster built on the servers' local disks.
• Storage Replica — synchronous or asynchronous replication of volumes between two sites, with no volume limit.
• Software-defined networking — gateways, load balancing and distributed virtual firewalls.
• Shielded virtual machines — VM encryption and protection against a malicious host administrator.
• Unlimited Hyper-V containers — enhanced isolation for containerised application workloads.

Activation

The activation key is dispatched by email within a maximum of 24 hours. After installing Windows Server 2019 Datacenter, enter the key from Settings > Activation or via slmgr /ipk then slmgr /ato in an administrator command prompt.

System requirements

64-bit 1.4 GHz processor with NX, DEP and Second Level Address Translation (SLAT) for Hyper-V, 2 GB of RAM minimum and much more depending on the VMs hosted, 32 GB of disk space at minimum, Gigabit network card. User or device CALs remain required.
