Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Remote Desktop - 5 Device CALs   Remote Desktop Services accelerates and extends desktop and application deployments to any device, improving remote worker efficiency, while helping to keep critical intellectual property secure and simplify regulatory compliance. Remote Desktop Services enables virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), session-based desktops, and applications, allowing users to work anywhere. Role description   The Remote Desktop Services role provides technologies that enable users to connect to virtual desktops, RemoteApp programs, and session-based desktops. With Remote Desktop Services, users can access remote connections from within a corporate network or from the Internet. Practical Applications   Remote Desktop Services allows workers to work anywhere. Some of the critical benefits of Remote Desktop Services include:   Unified administration experience: Administer your session and virtual desktop collections, configure your RemoteApp programs, manage your virtual desktops, and add servers to the deployment from one centralized console. User personalization: User profile disks allowed you to preserve user personalization settings across session collections and pooled virtual desktop collections. Less expensive storage: Pooled virtual desktops can use local storage live migration between host computers. Personal virtual desktops can use storage located on network shares. Automated pooled virtual desktop management: Deploy and manage pooled virtual desktops centrally by using a virtual desktop template. Any changes, such as application installation or security updates, are installed on the virtual desktop template, and the pooled virtual desktops are recreated from the virtual desktop template. In Windows Server 2012 R2, Remote Desktop Services includes enhancements in the following areas:   Monitor and control by using session shadowing Reduced storage requirements and improved performance accessing common data RemoteApp programs perform more like locally-based applications Improved reconnection performance for remote clients Improved compression allowing improved usage of network bandwidth Display resolution changes automatically reflected on the remote client RemoteFX virtualized GPU supports DX11.1

Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Remote Desktop Services - 20 User CALsSame Day license delivered within 30 minutes during normal business hours.Licensing RequirementsOnce the licensing grace period is past, you must have a license for each connecting user or device to connect to an RD Session Host server. Youll also need to install an RD Licensing server. You can install the RD Licensing role service on the same server?the service isnt very demanding?or on a separate server.Youll need to purchase RDS Client Access Licenses (CALs) and install them on the RD Licensing server. These RDS CALs are tied to the server, but RDS lets you move them to new hardware if needed. Remember that RDS supports both per-user and per-device licensing. The model you choose should depend on whether you have more users or computers. RDS does not have concurrent-user licensing, and the licenses you choose must match the mode for which you configure the RD Session Host server.Install the RD Licensing role service just as you did the RD Session Host role service. Then you must: Activate the RD Licensing server Install RDS CALs so the RD Licensing server can allocate them to users and devices Tell the RD Session Host server to use the RD Licensing server (you must do this even if the two role services are located on the same machine) You can virtualize an RD Session Host server, but youll likely see a reduction in the number of simultaneous sessions it can support. Be sure to model on the same machine type (physical or virtual) you intend to use. If you do build a virtual RD Session Host server, you should probably use a server with a processor supporting second-level address translation (SLAT) to reduce the overhead of memory mapping between the physical machine and the VMs. To reduce overhead, its also advisable to use a Type 1 hypervisor like Hyper-V, not a Type 2.

Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Foundation   A good server platform is a vital component of every small-scale business organization.

The two share a functional environment but the approach each of them takes has many points of divergence. By reading this article you will find out more about what sets Foundation 2012 apart from the competition, in terms of both features and unique advantages. These are minimum system requirements for installing Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Foundation:   Processor - 1.4 GHz and faster (x64 architecture required) Memory - 512MB and more Available Disk Space - at least 32GB
