Enable TLS 1.2 by default for enhanced connection security

By default, Exchange Server 2019 encryption uses only TLS 1.2. It disables support for older algorithms such as DES, 3DES, MD5, RC2, and RC4 in favor of this. It will also prioritize key exchange algorithms for elliptic curves over non-elliptic algorithms.

Search Infrastructure Improvements

Exchange 2019 has a completely rebuilt search infrastructure, built for increased reliability and cloud usage. It can also handle larger files when indexing, as well as better search performance and easier management.

Failovers that are faster and more reliable

The change in search architecture also means that there is a significant increase in reliability and speed with regard to failover between one server and another.

Metacache database improvements

Exchange Server 2019 has undergone changes to the core of their database engine to improve performance and make better use of innovations in storage hardware, such as larger hard drives and solid-state drives (SSDs).

Cmdlet Remove-Calendar Events

This feature allows administrators to cancel and delete meetings hosted by users who are no longer with the company. They are removed from attendees' calendars instead of leaving a defunct event that cannot be interacted with.
