    Windows Server 2016 Minimal Installation

     Info

    Overview

    This Image is hardened with a base profile, suitable for use in HVM instance types only. The image contains just enough packages to run within AWS, bring up an RDP Server, and allow users to login.

    Windows Server 2016 Minimal Installation is optimized for automated use at scale, with a tiny package set and minimal security cross-section.

    The Minimal Server Interface is a configuration option that does not include significant aspects of the Server Graphical Shell. It enables most local GUI management tasks without requiring the Server Graphical Shell or Internet Explorer to be installed. This reduces the security and servicing footprint of the server thereby increasing safety and uptime while expanding deployment scenarios.

    The Image is specially hardened for AWS Marketplace and pre-configured for fast and secure deployment.

    • Unique hybrid capabilities with AWS to extend your data center and maximize investments
