Windows Server Vs Windows 10
Active8 months ago
- Update and compliance comparison; Feature Windows 10 Pro for Workstations Windows 10 Pro Windows 10 Enterprise 1; Windows Server Update Service (WSUS) Enables IT admins to deploy the latest Microsoft product updates. Windows Update for Business Stay up to date with a simple cloud-based service that integrates with System Center Configuration Manager.
- .WDS Transport Server is new to Server Core installations in Windows Server 2019 (also in the semi-annual channel starting with Windows Server, version 1803) Features Windows Server Features installable with Server Manager (or PowerShell).
- Windows 10 and Windows Server Share Similar Code. If you load up a clean copy of Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016, it would be easy to confuse the two at first. They can have the same desktop, same start button, and even the same task view button. They use the same kernel and can feasibly run the same software.
- A.) Now running file server on Windows server (on host itself). My vendor told this Windows Server license is only for two processors or one host and one guest. The performance is fine for now. Server 2012 R2 allows you to run hyper-v host (nothing else can run on the host) and two VMs. Or you can run as you are.
I can run IIS on a normal installation, what is so different about windows server?
Get Windows 10 Pro if you can, download Destroy Windows Spying (Look it up on privacytools.io) and get rid of the apps and disable the app store. Windows server is designed for servers, not desktops while I have heard of some success of people turning the system into gaming system but it sounds like a lot more work than what its worth. Both Windows Server(2010, 2010, 2012, 2012R2) and Windows( Vista, 7,8, 8.1) all use the same driver model. There isn't anything that the Hyper-V feature within Windows Server 2012R2 can do that Windows 8 cannot do at least not for somebody interesting in using it for programming or photo editing.

Several key areas:
- Amount of memory supported
- Number of processors supported
- Number of network connections may be greater than 10
- Some apps do an OS version check, and they won't install unless it's the proper server version (as previously mentioned)
- By default, the server OS is configured to give priority to background apps/services and the client OS is configured to give priority to foreground apps. This can be configured, however.
- There are some services (Microsoft created) that are only permitted to run on the server OS (DNS, DHCP, Active Directory, PKI, etc.) as previously mentioned.

Number of connections, see here, it can be gotten around. Performance maybe, since Windows desktop OS's are optimized for foreground apps, i.e. all those Notepads, IE's, etc, where server OS's are optimized for services.
In short, it's fine for development and testing, but not recommended for serious production.

Some software like SQL Server Enterprise Edition, Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server are server products that will specifically run on Windows Server.
Also, it can do DNS, DHCP, VPN, Print Server, etc.

I believe you're limited to 10 connections and 1 website with IIS on a desktop version of Windows.
