Buy your core-based licence from Vollversion-Software and lay a modern, secure foundation for your business applications.
The groundbreaking features of Windows Server 2016
Server 2016 offers far more than just an evolution. It is a platform designed for the challenges of the modern IT world.
Containers & Docker integration
Step into the world of application virtualisation. Windows Server 2016 was the first version with native support for container technology.
- Windows Server Containers: Isolate applications directly on the host operating system for fast start times and high efficiency.
- Hyper-V Containers: Provide maximum security and isolation by running each container in a lightweight virtual machine.
- Native Docker support: Use Docker's industry-leading toolset to manage your container workloads.
Improved security at every level
With the "zero trust" approach, Server 2016 proactively protects your infrastructure from threats.
- Shielded VMs: Protect your virtual machines from compromised host systems through encryption with BitLocker.
- Nano Server: An extremely stripped-down, headless installation mode that reduces your server's attack surface by over 90% – ideal for cloud applications and containers.
- Just Enough Administration (JEA): Assign granular admin rights so that administrators can only run the commands they really need for their tasks.
For highly virtualised data centres that need unlimited VM rights and advanced storage features such as Storage Spaces Direct, the more powerful Windows Server 2016 Datacenter edition is the best choice.

Frequently asked questions
What is the biggest change in licensing for Server 2016?
With Windows Server 2016, licensing changed from processor-based to a core-based model . The physical cores of the server are now licensed. A minimum of 16 cores must be licensed per server, even if the server physically has fewer.
How many virtual machines may I run with the Standard edition?
The Windows Server 2016 Standard licence entitles you to run up to two virtual machines (VMs) or two Hyper-V Containers, provided all physical cores of the host are licensed.
What is "Nano Server" and who is it suitable for?
Nano Server is an extremely small, remotely managed installation option without a graphical interface. It drastically reduces storage requirements, maintenance effort and attack surface. It is ideal as a host for modern cloud-native applications, containers or as an extremely lean file server.
Do I need new access licences (CALs) for Server 2016?
Yes. If you upgrade from an older server version (e.g. 2012 R2), you also need to update your CALs to version 2016 (or newer). CALs must always be at least the same version as the server being accessed.
When should I choose the Datacenter edition instead of the Standard edition?
Choose the Datacenter edition if you want to run an unlimited number of virtual machines on one host. In addition, some advanced features such as Storage Spaces Direct, Shielded VMs for Linux and an extended network stack are included exclusively in the Datacenter edition.
