Hello, and welcome back, Cloud Gurus,
for this brand new section
on Configuring and Managing Windows Server Storage.
This section has been a long time coming
and there's plenty to cover here
so let's take a look at what we're going to cover
in this section.
First off, we'll cover off the high-level concepts
like how you can configure disk volumes,
partition styles, and file systems.
And we'll also explore how you can improve the resiliency
of your storage within a single server.
And we'll also revise how you can configure shares
and explore the latest features available
for Windows file servers.
And we'll also dive into some advanced
file management scenarios
including how you can limit certain files
from being saved to a file share
or control the amount of data that is saved to a file share.
And we'll also explore how you can distribute data
between your Windows file servers,
where the servers might be in different offices
or they might be on-premises and some might be in the cloud.
And we'll also take a look at how you can provide
high availability with multiple Windows file servers,
where the servers might be
in different sites or in the same site.
And we'll also explore how you can improve the capacity
and utilization of your Windows file servers.
And we'll wrap up this section with a look
at how you can improve the performance
of your Windows file servers in slow network situations.
Now all of these topics are foundational
Window server capabilities
and you will use these features frequently
throughout your career as a hybrid administrator.
And there's some good exam tips in this section too.
So let's get started.
