HPE ROK licenses are Microsoft Windows Server Operating System (OS) licenses that are sold by HPE Reseller Partners and optimized specifically for HPE Servers. ROK offers customers proven reliability and performance at an affordable price with easy purchase and setup. HPE ROK is the very same Windows Server OS one would get directly from Microsoft.
