00:05.580 --> 00:12.720
Windows Server 20 19 is designed to provide the features needed for small networks for enterprise data

00:12.720 --> 00:16.020
centers and for everything in between.

00:16.050 --> 00:19.690
That means that there are features designed for all levels.

00:19.740 --> 00:22.320
There are no prerequisites for this course.

00:22.470 --> 00:27.740
Whether you're just beginning with Windows servers or if you've been administering them for years there's

00:27.750 --> 00:31.570
something here for you as you go through this course.

00:31.590 --> 00:37.130
There are a few things that will help you get the most out of the presentations and demonstrations here.

00:37.260 --> 00:43.200
First it's always a good idea to build a test lab and follow along with the demonstrations that will

00:43.200 --> 00:45.240
help you to do that.

00:45.240 --> 00:51.690
You should have a robust machine that's installed with Windows Server hyper v or any other virtualization

00:51.690 --> 00:53.910
platform that works for you.

00:54.000 --> 01:01.050
I'm doing all of the demonstrations in this course on a Windows 20 19 Data Center edition server installed

01:01.050 --> 01:08.410
with 128 gig of ram and quite a bit of hard drive space many of the rolls and features that we're going

01:08.410 --> 01:13.760
to discuss in this course are designed to run an Active Directory environments.

01:13.810 --> 01:19.630
If you're already familiar with creating an Active Directory Domain you'll find that the process hasn't

01:19.630 --> 01:22.420
really changed in server 20 19.

01:22.450 --> 01:23.620
If you're new to this.

01:23.620 --> 01:30.220
Pay close attention to the videos on creating a new domain and site and then use that process to build

01:30.220 --> 01:31.490
test environments.

01:32.590 --> 01:37.170
Most of all it will help if you start this course with an open mind.

01:37.180 --> 01:43.660
I'm going to demonstrate installing and managing various roles and capabilities in legacy tools empower

01:43.680 --> 01:50.110
power shell and in a brand new management platform all are available in this new version of Windows

01:50.110 --> 01:56.190
Server and I recommend that you consider each on their relative merits to decide what's best for you.

01:56.860 --> 01:59.110
Well I don't know about you but I'm ready to get started.
