Windows Server 2012 is the sixth version of Microsoft's Windows Server operating system, as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems. It is the server version of Windows based on Windows 8 and succeeds Windows Server 2008 R2, which is derived from the Windows 7 codebase, released nearly three years earlier.

The Benefits of Studying Windows Server
Data Deduplication
Over the last decade, nothing has grown as fast as data has, and storage has become the number one IT expense for companies of all sizes. The storage market continues to grow at a surprising 30% per year!
While deduplication was available in Windows Storage Server, it’s also been embedded into the core Windows Server OS.
Deduplication eliminates the duplicated space by as much as 90% across operating system installations, resulting in hundreds of gigabytes, even terabytes of space reclaimed.
By removing the hard disk out of the server and booting across the network, an organization can save money and have a more flexible data center. In Windows Server 2012, a diskless boot is supported as an OS feature.
This also has an advantage from a management perspective. For example, an administrator wants to create a master image for his webservers.
Shared Nothing-Live Migration
With Windows Server 2012, the new, shared nothing-live migration allows you to move a VM between servers, however, the servers must be able to see each other via an Ethernet connection. Any changes during a shared nothing-live migration are logged, and once the original copy is complete, the updated version will be applied to the source and destination virtual hard disk (VHD) file.
