Is it ok to install Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012 Standard?

Hello everyone,

I'd like to know if it is ok/safe to install Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012 Standard?

As I started doing some research and noticed a page where Microsoft states they don't recommend running Exchange on Server 2012 Standard, and recommend making 2 different servers one for Active Directory and another for Exchange.
On that page they also listed some features that wouldn't work in case of Exchange is running on Server 2012. And that it may put a larger data load if setup this way.
I am hoping someone knowledgeable can explain and tell me if it is safe to use such setup or if it is better to use something like SBS 2011 Standard instead, which has Exchange included?

Has anyone installed Exchange 2013 on Server 2012 Standard successfully and used it for more then several months without problems?

Also just to give an idea on my background, I've been in IT field fairly long but haven't really updated to newer versions much and mainly used SBS 2003 and 2008 only with a few clients so haven't used 2008 too much.

Thanks in advance.
