Nano and Core are very different things. Core is "full" Windows Server - except it has no GUI. This significantly reduces the attack surface - no IE, no MMC, no Windows Explorer, no Windows Shell... Core can run most (not all, but most) server loads. Nano is a VERY restricted version of server. It cannot run most server loads.

Moss Sent: Thursday, June 1, 2017 4:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [NTSysADM] What is the argument for Windows Server Core/NanoServer over Linux? Hey all, Just had to ask this one. I'm really curious because I've heard the argument, well, if you're going to run server Core, why not just use linux? What can you say to make the conversation worthwhile and not just arguing preferences? Or is that really what it's all about these days? Iv'e been wondering what the people who have been on both sides might say.
