I’d like to update our server to use Windows Server 2019 but the Wowza site only lists 2012 and 2016 as “supported”. Do any of you know if it will run on 2019? Any problems?

That OS will be fine. Just need to make sure the physical specs of the server are met. Requirements are listed in this guide: [https://www.wowza.com/products/streaming-engine/specifications](https://www.wowza.com/products/streaming-engine/specifications)

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you! The hardware (Dell Poweredge R730) is only about 4 years old and is running SE 4.7.7 on Server 2012 R2 so I think that I’m good. I’ll double-check anyway.

Thanks again,
