Microsoft has changed its licensing with regards Windows Server and virtualization. You're now able to license Windows per virtual core in a virtualized environment instead of only per physical core of the host machine. This also applies to Windows 10 and Windows 11, which clears up a massive hurdle to trying to roll your own VDI virtual desktop infrastructure.
