Prepare for Windows Server 2008 end of support
Extended support for Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 ends January 14, 2020. Microsoft will no longer release security updates, which may expose you to security attacks or make you out of compliance with industry regulations such as GDPR.
Avoid business disruptions and use this as an opportunity to modernise your application stack.
No security updates
There will be no access to critical updates, opening the potential for business interruptions and loss of data.
Compliance concerns
As support ends, your organisation may fail to meet compliance standards and industry regulations.
Innovation opportunity
Leaders that embrace digital transformation outperform the competition.
Take advantage of this opportunity to transform critical parts of your operation and move off outdated platforms.
