Microsoft Windows Server 2025 Datacenter
Windows Server 2025 Datacenter is the edition for heavily virtualised environments. It is the same server platform as Standard, extended by the virtualisation rights and the software-defined datacentre features that Standard does not include.
What is included
- The Datacenter edition of Windows Server 2025 for virtualised infrastructure
- Storage Spaces Direct and software-defined networking
- Active Directory Domain Services, file and print services, IIS and Hyper-V
- The security improvements introduced with the 2025 generation
Who this licence is for
Aimed at data centres and companies that run many virtual machines on one host. For a single physical server with one or two VMs, the Standard edition is the more economical choice.
Delivery and activation
Your product key and the download link are sent to the email address you use at checkout, straight after your payment is confirmed. A step-by-step activation guide comes with it, and if a key ever fails to activate we replace it free of charge.
Good to know
Windows Server is licensed per server, and depending on your setup you may also need client access licences (CALs) for the users or devices that connect to it. If you are not sure what your environment needs, write to us before you order and we will go through it with you.
