The latest version of the long-term support release of Windows Server, Windows Server 2022, is now available.
Windows Server 2022 is the new long-term servicing channel release of Windows Server for on-premises data centers and virtual machines.
While the two editions of Windows Server 2022 offer the same core server features that build on existing Windows Server functionality, there are some differences around how they support Hyper-V virtual machines and how they manage networking and storage.
Windows Defender: Microsoft's Windows Server Antimalware application is installed by default in Windows Server 2022.
Microsoft is bringing this model to Windows Server 2022 as an optional set of security tools, offering what it's calling Secured-core Server, with secured hardware and firmware from server partners as well as its own software tools.
General availability of Windows Server 2022 was announced on 1 September 2021, with a launch event as part of the Windows Server Summit on 16 September.
