Windows Server Roles, Role Services, and Features Glossary

Creating a list of Windows Server roles, role services, and features for Windows Server Core installations requires an understanding of the minimalist environment provided by Windows Server Core. This environment is designed for those who need a smaller system footprint. Windows Server Core excludes the graphical user interface (GUI) to reduce the resource usage and attack surface, thus it's primarily managed via the command line or PowerShell. Below is an example list sorted by common usage, in MediaWiki format. Note that “most commonly used” can vary based on organizational needs, but this list focuses on core functionalities typically valued in headless (non-GUI) server environments. The official Microsoft documentation will be the best source for comprehensive and up-to-date information.
