Overview


Are security threats, performance issues, and hybrid environments limiting your organization's ability to scale and innovate? Microsoft Windows Server 2025 secures and optimizes your infrastructure, ensuring future-readiness and agility. It builds on proven security and hybrid capabilities, introducing enhanced performance for compute-intensive workloads like ML and AI. Optimized for both cloud and on-premises use, it integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Azure Arc to maximize your hybrid, multicloud, and edge IT environments. Paired with HPE servers, Windows Server 2025 delivers optimized hardware-software integration, enhanced performance, and robust security. With the new digital media delivery, user experience is simplified while promoting sustainability by replacing physical media with digital downloads, reducing waste. This transition gives users faster software access and efficient license management, streamlining operations and supporting eco-friendly practices.

What is new supporting point:
Active Directory (AD): LDAP support for TLS 1.3 helps remove obsolete cryptographic algorithms; Kerberos support for AES SHA-256/384; new domain controllers increased to 32K pages; added RootDSE mod.
WAC for hybrid and on-premises server management; containers extension in WAC; decreased size of WS core container base; simplify containerizing .NET, ASP.NET, Web Deploy, and MSI applications.
Hyper-V: GPU partitioning (GPU-P) allows to share a GPU across multiple VMs; support for live migration and failover clustering; VM scalability: support for 240 TB of RAM; support for 2048 LPs.
Storage migration services: Optimized NVMe; lower CPU utilization; software-defined storage enhancements: Resilient File System (ReFS)-optimized deduplication and compression.
Hotpatch: Security updates with no reboot (available for Azure Arc-enabled servers) and multi-layered security; secured-core server technology: Trusted Platform Module 2.0 and System Guard.
Digital media delivery: HPE OEM with Windows Server 2025 Licenses are now streamlined and sustainable. Users can download installation media from My HPE Software Center.




At-a-glance


  • For hybrid use cases when using Microsoft Windows Server 2025, both on-premises and on Azure: Get crucial updates with less downtime. Hotpatching allows many security updates to be applied without a need to reboot. Add-on service is available for Azure Arc-enabled servers.
    Multi-layered security; secured-core server technology: Trusted Platform Module 2.0 and system guard to boot up Windows Server more securely and minimize risk from firmware vulnerabilities.
    Windows Defender Credential Guard virtualization-based security (VBS): Windows Defender Exploit Guard offers a set of host intrusion prevention capabilities. Integrated Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) gives access to deep kernel and memory sensors.
    VBS enclaves enable isolation of sensitive workloads; VBS key protection to protect cryptographic keys.
    AD: LDAP support for TLS 1.3 helps remove obsolete cryptographic algorithms; Kerberos support AES SHA-256/384; new domain controllers increased to 32K pages; added RootDSE mod; Microsoft Windows Server 2025 supports AES-256-GCM and AES-256-CCM cryptographic suites for SMB encryption.

  • Microsoft Windows Server 2025 delivers a modern operating system that enables enhanced VM memory, expanded processor and device support, superior congestion control, and improvements in encryption and networking.
    Storage Migration Service provides a graphical tool that inventories data on Windows, Linux, and NetApp Common Internet File System (CIFS) servers and then transfers the data to newer servers or Azure virtual machines.
    The containers extension in WAC enable the containerization of apps as well as troubleshooting for containers running on a host, such as opening a console connection to a container, checking logs, monitoring resource consumption, and more.
    Microsoft drastically decreased the size of the Windows Server core container base image by reducing duplicate payloads and removing unused optional components.
    Windows Server 2025 introduces native deduplication and compression for ReFS, optimizing storage for active workloads like VMs, file servers, and backups while improving efficiency.

  • This modernized approach not only simplifies the UX but also supports sustainability by helping eliminate physical media, reducing waste, and reducing environmental impact. By transitioning to digital delivery, HPE empowers users with faster access to their SW and efficient licensing management.

  • WAC: Hybrid and on-premises server management at no additional cost.
    Azure hybrid services tool in WAC and Azure Monitor; seamless management of hybrid server environments, storage migration, system insights (predictive analytics capabilities native to Windows Server), protecting VMs and synchronizing file servers.
    For hybrid use cases when using Microsoft Windows Server 2025 both on-premises and on Azure: Azure Monitor can collect data directly from physical or virtual Windows computers into a Log Analytics workspace for detailed analysis and correlation.
