Hi,
I would go so far as to say unless you use some sort of config management like DSC Chef etc as well as using a remote monitoring system like Azure Monitor, Server Core won't give you the necessary fundamentals to run your servers in production.
Would be interested to see if people are running Core in prod without any config management across multiple servers and how it works for them.
I run Server Core in several places but JFW doesn't get near it and everything controlled using DSC with Azure Automation accounts. I also have a few Docker instances but we don't talk about Docker on Windows!
Andrew.

Please don't use server core. I have not had any success with running Jaws remotely on this since the first versions of core 2016. Each time, I encounter no errors but Jaws simply doesn't start.

Hi everyone:
I wanted to throw a question out to those of you who regularly work with Windows servers. When setting up a new server, do you go for server core or the full desktop experience? Are your reasons accessibility based at all, AKA would you use server core more if you could run a screen reader directly on the server, even built in AT such as Narrator? If you need to use servers running Server Core in your job, how do you do so today and what are your concerns around this method? Is remote access through tools like Powershell, server manager, Windows Admin center enough for day to day use or is not having normal console access an issue? Do you use Emergency Management Serviceshttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-comma... to get serial console access or is that approach you'd take if you needed it?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Ryan
