replace SQL Server. It’s really only intended to support roles and features in the Windows Server operating system.
Windows PowerShell
Windows Server 2022 includes both PowerShell 5.1 and the PowerShell ISE installed by default. In most cases, this is all you need to work with the server with PowerShell. You can also install the older PowerShell 2.0 Engine, PowerShell Web Access, and PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC).
PowerShell is such a broad topic that Book 6 is devoted to it.
Windows Process Activation Service
When you install the Windows Process Activation Service, you can provide features you would normally get with IIS and HTTP applications to non-HTTP applications using Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) services. Additionally, IIS 10.0 takes advantage of Windows Process Activation Service to do message-based activations over HTTP.
Windows Search Service
Windows Search Service (WSS) can analyze a set of documents and extract useful information, typically metadata, which can then be queried later on. The processing of indexing can be pretty CPU intensive, but the service will throttle itself or even pause indexing if the user experience might be impacted by indexing. By leveraging the indexing, your users will notice a performance improvement when they do a search on your file server.
Windows Server Backup
Windows Server Backup is a built-in backup utility. It can be used to back up and restore data, and can perform full backups, system state backups, volume backups, and specific folder backups. You can even do a bare metal backup, which will allow you to completely restore your system should it need to be rebuilt.
Backups can be saved on a local drive or on a remote server share, and they can be run once or scheduled to run as often as needed.
Windows Server Migration Tools
Microsoft tried to make migrating to a newer version of Windows Server as painless as possible with Windows Server Migration Tools. This feature, when installed, can migrate roles, features, OS settings, and shares. I think that the greatest value of this tool is being able to move roles from several versions of the operating system back. This can be a very scary proposition for some system administrators, but Windows Server Migration Tools really simplifies the process and reduces the risk of things going wrong.
Windows Standards-Based Storage Management
Do you need to discover, manage, and monitor your storage devices? Are the management interfaces using the SMI-S standard? If you answered yes to both questions, then this is the feature for you. Installing this feature will add several Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) classes and Windows PowerShell cmdlets to the server and will allow you discover, manage, and monitor compatible devices.
Windows Subsystem for Linux
The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) originally gave you the ability to run a form of an Ubuntu-based bash shell on Windows. It has been enhanced since that early start and now allows you to install a full version of Linux from the Windows Store. It should be noted that WSL does not give you the full graphical Linux experience. It gives you terminal access and was primarily designed with developers in mind.
Windows TIFF IFilter
When the Windows TIFF IFilter is enabled, you can search TIFF files for text using optical character recognition (OCR). The IFilter can be used by the Windows search utility and will allow you to do full text searches of the TIFF files on your systems. It’s worth noting that the text needs to be clear. If the TIFF image is the result of a scan and the scan quality is poor, or includes images, the IFilter may not be able to read the TIFF file as well.
WinRM IIS Extension
Enabling WinRM IIS Extension allows you to manage the server remotely from a client that is using WS-Management (WS-Man), like PowerShell remoting for example.
WINS Server
WINS Server maps out NetBIOS names to IP addresses. A Windows system could register itself with WINS, and then other systems in the workgroup could query the WINS server for that system’s IP address. This has, for the most part, been replaced by DNS in most organizations.
Wireless LAN Service
If your server needs to connect to a wireless connection, you’ll need to install this feature. Wireless LAN Service allows the server to find wireless network adapters and manages both the wireless connections and wireless profiles.
WoW64 Support
WoW64 Support is installed by default on Windows Server 2022 and allows you to run 32-bit applications on a 64-bit system.
XPS Viewer
The XPS Viewer is installed by default on Windows Server 2022 with Desktop Experience. It allows you to read XPS documents and assign permissions or digitally sign XPS documents as well.
