Was bedeutet das neue Betriebssystem Windows Server 2016 für Ihr Unternehmen? Wie kann das Zusammenspiel von on Premise und Cloud und der Betrieb optimiert werden? An unserem Breakfast Briefing am 9. November im au Premier, wurden diese Fragen beantwortet. Hier die Präsentationen des gut besuchten Events.

Credential Guard
Prevents Pass-the-Hash and Pass-the-Ticket attacks
by protecting stored credentials through
virtualization-based security.
Remote Credential Guard
Works in conjunction with Credential Guard
for RDP sessions to deliver Single Sign-On (SSO),
eliminating the need to pass credentials to the RDP host.
Just Enough Administration
Limits administrative privileges to the bare-minimum
required set of actions (limited in space).
Just-in-Time Administration
Provides privileged access through a workflow
that is audited and limited in time.

9. Help protect virtual machines
Shielded Virtual Machines
Use BitLocker to encrypt the disk and state
of virtual machines protecting secrets from
compromised admins and malware.
Host Guardian Service
Attests to host health releasing the keys
required to boot or migrate a Shielded
VM only to healthy hosts.
Generation 2 VMs
Supports virtualized equivalents of
hardware security technologies (e.g.,
TPMs) enabling BitLocker encryption for
Shielded Virtual Machines.

10. Software defined datacenter

11. Increase reliability with cluster enhancements
Cluster OS Rolling Upgrade
Upgrade your fabric to Windows Server 2016, without
downtime to workloads running on Hyper-V virtual
machines.
Mixed OS Mode cluster
Provides ability for Windows Server 2012 R2 cluster
nodes to operate with Windows Server 2016 nodes.
VM resiliency
Designed for cloud-scale environments, this helps
preserve VM session state in the event of transient
storage or network disruptions.
Fault domain-aware clusters
Enhances key operations during cluster lifecycle such as
failover behavior, placement policies, heartbeating
between nodes, and quorum behavior.

12. Complete software-defined storage solution
Storage Replica
Create affordable business continuity
and disaster recovery among
datacenters.
Storage Quality of Service
Prevent noisy neighbors from impacting
high priority workloads with a Storage
QoS policy.
Storage Spaces Direct
Use standard servers with local storage
to build highly available and scalable
software-defined storage.
Site 1 Site 2

13. Converged solution
On-premises disaggregated solution
Scale components separately
in this model.
Simultaneous scaling is possible
when compute (Hyper-V) and storage
components (Storage Spaces Direct)
reside on the same cluster.

20. Windows Server 2016 – Licensing per
Edition

21. Alignment tocoresastheconsistent cloudcurrency
License physical cores License each user/device
Server licensing
16 core licenses will be same as 2-proc 2012 R2 price
Customers granted a minimum of 16 core licenses per 2-proc 2012 R2 license with SA at renewal
1:1 ratio of cores for Azure hybrid use rights benefit
No
change

22. Windows Server 2016 Processor to Core update
• To license a physical server, all physical cores must be licensed in the Server
• A minimum of 8 core licenses is required for each physical processor in the
Server and a minimum of 16 cores is required to be licensed for Servers with
one processor
• Core licenses will be sold in packs of 2
• The Standard Edition of Windows Server will license up to 2 VMs/OSE when all
of the physical cores on the Server are licensed (minimum of 8 core per proc
and 16 cores per Server)
• The price of 16-core licenses of Windows Server 2016 Datacenter and Standard
Edition will be same price as the 2 proc license of the corresponding editions of
the Windows Server 2012 R2 version. No implicit price change in this scenario

«Wechsel von Prozessoren zu Cores»
28
• Server werden anhand der Anzahl physikalischer
“Cores” lizenziert
• Um einen physikalischen Server korrekt zu
lizenzieren, müssen alle “Cores” berücksichtigt
werden
• Es muss das Minimum von 16 “Cores” lizenziert
werden
• Pro physikalischem Prozessor sind mindestens 8
“Cores” zu lizenzieren.
• Der Preis von 16 “Cores” des Windows Server 2016
entspricht dem Preis eines Windows Server 2012 R2
• Bestehende Lizenzen mit Software Assurance (SA)
werden beim Renewal mit tatsächlicher Anzahl
“Cores” Lizenzen wie benötigt (SA only, mit
Dokumentation vor Ablauf)

34. Windows Server 2016 – Weshalb ?
34
Storage Kosten reduzieren im Datacenter
Downtime der IT-Services reduzieren
IT Security erhöhen
Zeitgewinn und Risiko minimieren durch weniger «patchen»

35. 1 - Network Location Server (NLS) als Nano Server
35
NLS = Webservice, wichtige Komponente
Direct Access Implementationen

36. 36

37. 2 – DC als Core Server managed via Azure
37
DC = Domain Controller, EXTREM wichtig
Core Server managen wir NEU ohne GUI 
Core Server setzen wir seit Win2012 im
Hyper-V Cluster Umfeld primär ein

38. 38

39. 3 – Hyper-V Cluster mit Nano Server + SDS

•Hyper-converged mit Storage Spaces Direct
•NIC und RAM können beim laufenden Betrieb
entfernt/hinzugefügt werden
•in-box synchrone Replikation
•enorme IOPS Performance !!!
