Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this project was to review the new Windows Server 2016 features and test out Nano Server and Containers in the Windows Server 2016 environment. Only small part of people know what Containers and Nano Server are. Thus, this theses introduce this new features in more details to everyone.
Windows Server 2016 has a lot of new impacts in various of fields. These impacts consist of compute, administration, identity and access, networking, storage, security and assurance and failover clustering. These impacts were analyzed, and based on my own decision I decided to test Nano Server and Containers in practice.
The operating system and working environment were given by the supervisor. Server was created in a cluster. Based on the project theme, all configurations were made on Windows Server 2016. Container management was made using the Docker program providing containerization.
The result of the thesis was a fully working Nano Server in Hyper-V that can do all the configurations. There is a web service that can be implemented, if needed. Later web services in a Container using nginx and docker-compose was made. Finally, fully running and working Nano Server in a container was implemented.
