Technical requirements

In this chapter, you will need the Windows Server 2016 operating system – either the Standard Edition or the Enterprise Edition. If you plan to use your own lab to prepare for the exam, then you can use Hyper-V on Windows Server or the Windows client operating systems. Of course, you can practice on real hardware as well, but it is a lot more practical to practice in a virtualized environment. Any virtualization environment or hypervisor will work just fine, and you can set up your own practice lab in the Microsoft Azure cloud as well.
