If you are using the Microsoft platform, if you are ready to embark on the path of cloud computing, it is estimated that your first concern is whether the cloud service provider has the right Windows operating system.
Here we know the well-known cloud service provider of the Windows operating system listed for your reference.

4. Ucloud

As you can see, Amazon AWS offers the most complete Windows operating systems, and Microsoft Azure offers the least.
If we are free to choose, we prefer Windows Server x64 English, and the alternative is the Windows Server 2008 x64 English version. However, the domestic Aliyun and Ucloud are not provided by default.
Oddly, Aliyun and Ucloud both provide the English version of Windows Server 2003, but do not provide the English version of Windows Server 2008.
I wonder how many people in the garden like to use the English version of Windows Server?
In addition, if you use cloud computing, you will immediately feel such a benefit (domestic cloud service provider only)-do not have to pay for legitimate windows, the same configuration of Windows virtual machine and Linux virtual machine price is the same. In other words, choosing an operating system does not take into account the cost of operating system software itself. From this perspective, cloud computing is a good thing for Windows.
It is recommended that the domestic cloud service provider provide Windows Server 2012 by default, although the first thing to get into the new installation of Windows Server 2012 is to install Classic Start menu to reproduce the Start menus, but Windows Server 2012 the support of virtualization is better, this is our firsthand experience.
