Windows is taking things to a higher notch with the cloud technology. Cloud windows server technology enables companies and businesses to host all their sites and applications on windows server on the cloud. The applications run smoothly just like they would do in your data centers and your information is backed up, all the time.

 

When using windows cloud servers, you may notice the difference compared to windows virtual private server (vps) traditionally used. Most general vps providers, divide their large dedicated servers and share them among customers. Windows on the other hand run a fully isolated cloud server just for you. Every user runs their own windows cloud server. With this, the security of the user is guaranteed and the performance is boosted. It also provides a broader variety of server types, better configurability and stronger isolation.

 

Some windows cloud server comes with a pre-installed windows. For example, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012. With Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012 you experience its power on a scalable cloud computing platform. It is very simple to create a new windows server just like choosing an installation from Microsoft’s library archive.

Other servers that come with a pre-installed windows include the Microsoft SQL Server 2014 and the Microsoft Windows Web Server 2012.

 

It is also able to install a Windows cloud Server from a CD. This reduces interactive limitations by the user with the servers.

At the heart of the Cloud OS is Microsoft Azure, an open and flexible cloud computing platform that enables you to quickly build, deploy and manage apps across a global network of Microsoft-managed datacenters.

 

Moreover one is able to build applications using any language, tool or framework. Also, with System Center, you can integrate your public cloud applications with your existing IT environment. For companies wanting to build their own private clouds (on-premises), Windows Server and SQL Server, as well as System Center come into play.
