Windows – Quick reminder: Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are reaching end of support in Jan 2020

It has been already reminded few times but as this is quite important as these versions are still use quite a lot you really need to start thinking to move on from Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2.

They are reaching their end of support/end of life on January 14th 2020.
You have few options available to move on:

  • migrate your 2008/2008 R2 workloads on Azure; you will enjoy additional 3 years of support but you will still have to move to the latest version available at that time
  • upgrade your 2008/2008 R2 workloads on-premises to Windows Server 2016
