Farewell to Windows Server 20H2 and the Semi-Annual Channel
Support for Windows Server 20H2 and the Semi-Annual Channel for Microsoft's veteran server product is due to end in a matter of weeks.
The clock is ticking down to August 9, at which point Windows Server 20H2 will not receive the monthly security and quality updates that have delighted administrators so. It will instead shuffle off into obsolescence and join the Home and Pro versions of Windows 10 20H2, which had their last updates in May 2022. The Education, Enterprise, and IoT Enterprise editions of Windows 10 20H2 will continue to be serviced until May 9, 2023.
The vision of the Semi-Annual Channel was to up the cadence of releases,"enabling customers to take advantage of innovation more quickly," according to Microsoft. Each release received 18 months of support and the focus was very much on containers and microservices. It was a neat idea, but administrators prefer stability. While the likes of Kubernetes and its ilk fling releases out with abandon , Windows Server didn't. Before semi-annual releases started in 2019, there was usually a gap of a year or more in which to take a breath.
