|---|---|
| Active Directory | A central database of computers, users, shared printers, shared folders, other network resources, and resource groupings that is used to manage a network and enable users to quickly find a particular resource. |
| Active Directory Certificate Services | Used to automate the configuration of deployment of encryption certificates to domain computers and users. |
| Active Directory-Based Activation role | A role service that relies on AD DS to store activation objects. |
| Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) | A Microsoft Defender feature that forces any processes or files that are not known to be dangerous but look suspicious to be automatically sent to servers within Microsoft Azure, a cloud computing platform, for deeper inspection. |
| AMD-V | The name given to the hypervisor acceleration feature in AMD-based machines. |
| authentication | The process of verifying the identity of a person or device |
| Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) | A feature in operating systems (such as Windows) that enables computers to automatically self-configure an IP address and subnet mask when their DHCP server isn't reachable |
| Azure Active Directory | Purchased services hosted within Microsoft’s Azure cloud to provide Active Directory services to your organization. |
| Azure Backup | Tool used to back up important information to storage in the Azure cloud. |
| Azure Site Recovery | Ensures that key services that you run on-premises are made automatically available in the Azure cloud if you encounter a failure of an on-premises server. |
| Azure Update Management | Centrally manages the updates for on-premises computers and virtual machines running in Azure. |
| Boot Protocol (BOOTP) | The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) is a computer networking protocol used in Internet Protocol networks to automatically assign an IP address to network devices from a configuration server. |
| broadcast | A message sent to all computers on a network (but usually blocked to other networks by a router). |
| checkpoints | A Windows Server Hyper-V feature that creates a second virtual hard disk file that stores any changes to the operating system after the time the checkpoint was taken. This is useful before testing a risky software configuration; if the software configurat |
| classless interdomain routing (CIDR) notation | An addressing notation used for IP addresses and their subnet masks. |
| Client Access License (CAL) | A commercial software license that allows clients to use server software services. |
| cloud server | Servers that exist within data centers outside the organization and are accessed via the Internet. |
| clustering | Linking two or more discrete computer systems so they appear to function as though they are one, thus increasing the ability to access server resources and provide fail-safe services. |
| cmdlet | A command-line tool available in Windows PowerShell. See Windows PowerShell. |
| Container | An alternative to virtual machines that may be used to host Web apps that are run on an underlying Windows Server operating system. |
| data deduplication | A feature that saves space by allowing duplicate files on a volume to be stored once on the physical storage device. |
| default gateway | The IP address of the router that has a connection to other networks. The default gateway address is used when the host computer you are trying to contact exists on another network. |
| demilitarized zone (DMZ) | A separate network that is surrounded by routers that implement advanced firewall capabilities for all traffic that is passing into the network from other computers within the organization and Internet. Also known as a perimeter network. |
| Desired State Configuration | A feature of Windows Server 2019 that is used to quickly configure multiple servers using a template file that lists required software and configuration items. |
| Docker | The most common container software used to implement containers on operating systems today. |
| domain | A logical grouping of computers that authenticate to a central database of users stored on special servers called domain controllers. |
| domain controller | special sever that contains a central database of users that allows them to authenticate to a domain. |
| Domain Name Space (DNS) | A server on the network that is used to resolve Internet names, such as www.google.ca, to IP addresses such that you can connect to Internet resources by name. |
| Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) | A network protocol that provides a way for a server to automatically assign an IP address to a workstation on its network. |
| Encrypting File System (EFS) | A feature that provides encryption for individual files and folders. |
| failover | A process for configuring a server cluster for fault tolerance only. In this configuration, one server actively responds to client requests, while another one only responds to client requests if the other one fails. |
| Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) | The proper term for Internet names. |
| Generic Volume License Key (GVLK) | The key that is stored on the Windows Server 2019 installation media that you received from Microsoft. |
| Group Policy | Used to configure operating system settings, security, and software for different computers and users in the domain. |
| guest operating system | An operating system that must access the hardware through both the hypervisor and underlying host operating system. |
| host ID | The portion of an IPv4 address that represents a single computer on that network. No two computers on the same network can have the same host ID. |
| hybrid cloud | A type of integration between on-premises Windows Servers and Windows Servers and services run within the Azure cloud. |
| Hyper-V | Virtualization software used to host Windows Server 2019 virtual machines on-premises. |
| Hyper-V container | A functionality of Hyper-V alongside Windows containers to provide additional performance and security features to Web apps that are run within containers on Windows Server. It allows each container to access a separate copy of the underlying Windows Serv |
| Hyper-V Manager | Microsoft’s Windows Server 2019 tool that allows an administrator to access Microsoft’s virtualization platform. |
| hypervisor | Software used to implement virtualization by allowing the hardware to host multiple operating systems. A hypervisor handles simultaneous requests for underlying hardware efficiently. |
| internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) | A protocol that is used to send network-related information and error messages across networks and the Internet. |
| Internet Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6) | The implementation of the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) for Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) |
| Internet Information Services (IIS) | A Microsoft Windows Server component that provides Internet, Web, FTP, mail, and other services to make the server into a full-featured web server. |
| Internet of Things (IoT) | The collective grouping of small Internet-connected devices. |
| Internet Protocol (IP) address | An address that identifies itself to the IP protocol. |
| Internet Service Provider (ISP) | An organization that provides services for accessing, using, or participating in the Internet. |
| IP version 4 (IPv4) | The most commonly used version of IP, which has been in use for many years. IPv4 has a limitation in that it was not designed to anticipate the vast numbers of networks and network users currently in existence. |
| IP version 6 (IPv6) | The newest version of IP that is designed for enhanced security and that can handle the addressing needs of growing networks. |
| ISO image file | A disk image of an optical disc. It is an archive file that contains everything that would be written to an optical disc, sector by sector, including the optical disc file system. |
