Defender for business installation and features

Question

Defender for business installation and features

Service Line 26

Gentlemen, Can Defender for Business be installed on Windows servers and if so which OS versions? What extra features would Defender for Business Servers add to server protection? Or is the case that Windows Servers can only use Defender for Business Servers? Appreciate your inputs. Thanks
