This version supports memory availability, increased user capacity, Windows Admin Center management, and advanced multi-layered security.
What's New in Windows Server 2022
Windows Server 2022 introduces many remarkable new features, making it the most advanced Windows Server. Some of the key enhancements include:
Elevated Security
Windows Server security features encompass simplified security, advanced protection, and preventative measures. With Secured-core server functions, Microsoft ensures hardware and firmware security features are enabled for OEM server hardware, delivering comprehensive security solutions.

In addition to the Secured-core server features, Microsoft has bolstered network security through connectivity services. These improvements include default activation of HTTPS and TLS 1.3, DNS-over-HTTPS, AES-256 encryption for SMB, SMB cluster communication encryption, SMB Direct, and RDMA encryption.
Hybrid Cloud
Hybrid cloud features and the evolution of Microsoft Azure integration have been evident in each successive Windows Server OS. The new Windows Server brings significant advancements in hybrid cloud integration.
