It is the successor to the Windows NT family of operating systems and is commonly used for a wide range of server applications, including file and print services, web servers, email servers, database servers, and more.
Windows Server provides a number of features and tools to help administrators manage and maintain their servers, including Active Directory for centralizing user authentication and authorization, Remote Desktop Services for remote access to the server, and IIS (Internet Information Services) for hosting web applications and services.
Windows Server can be run on physical servers or as a virtual machine, and it is available in several editions, including Windows Server Standard, Windows Server Datacenter, and Windows Server Essentials, each with different features and capabilities to meet the needs of different types of organizations.
