Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 reached the end of their support lifecycle on January 14, 2020. Windows Server Long Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) has a minimum of ten years of support—five years for mainstream support and five years for extended support. This support includes regular security updates.

End of support also means the end of security updates. This scenario can cause security or compliance issues and put business applications at risk. Microsoft recommends that you upgrade to the current version of Windows Server for the most advanced security, performance, and innovation.

If you haven't already upgraded your servers, the following options will help protect your apps and data during the transition:

• Migrate existing Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2 workloads as-is to Azure Virtual Machines (VMs).
  • This migration to Azure automatically provides an additional three years of extended security updates (ESU). There's no additional charge for extended security updates on top of Azure VM's cost, and there's no additional configuration required.
• Purchase an extended security update subscription for your servers and remain protected until you're ready to upgrade to a newer Windows Server version.
  • These updates are provided for up to three years after the end of support lifecycle date.

After the three year period of extended updates, we'll stop updating for Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2. We recommend you update your version of Windows Server to a more recent version as soon as possible.

What are extended security updates for Windows Server?

Extended security updates (ESUs) for Windows Server include security updates and bulletins rated critical and important, for a maximum of three years after January 14, 2020. Extended security updates don't include the following:

• New features
• Customer-requested non-security hotfixes
• Design change requests

For more information, see the Extended Security Updates frequently asked questions.

How to use Extended Security Updates

If you run Windows Server 2008 or 2008 R2 VMs in Azure, they're automatically enabled for Extended Security Updates. You don't need to configure anything, and there's no additional charge for using Extended Security Updates with Azure VMs. Extended Security Updates are automatically delivered to Azure VMs if they're configured to receive updates.

Note

Microsoft.ClassicCompute VMs require additional configuration for Extended Security Updates deployment since they don't have access to the Azure Instance Metadata Service that determines Extended Security Updates eligibility. Please contact Microsoft support for more help.

For other environments, such as on-premises VMs or physical servers, you need to manually request and configure Extended Security Updates. You can purchase Extended Security Updates through Volume Licensing Programs such as Enterprise Agreement (EA), Enterprise Agreement Subscription (EAS), Enrollment for Education Solutions (EES), or Server and Cloud Enrollment (SCE).

When you've purchased Extended Security Updates, you can use one of the following methods to get your keys:

Microsoft Server 2008 R2 Updates

• If you want to get Extended Security Update keys from the Azure Portal, you can register for Extended Security Updates in the Azure Portal.
• You can also sign in to the Microsoft Volume Licensing Service Center to get your keys without using the Azure Portal.

Register for Extended Security Updates on Azure Portal

To use Extended Security Updates on non-Azure VMs, create a multiple activation key (MAK) and apply it to Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2 computers. The MAK key lets the Windows Update servers know that you can continue to receive security updates. You register for Extended Security Updates and manage these keys using the Azure portal, even if you only use on-premises computers.

Overview

Microsoft Windows Media Services 2008, a free download for all versions of Windows Server 2008, is a scalable, reliable and affordable streaming media server for delivering live and on-demand content over the Internet or an intranet to Microsoft Silverlight and Windows Media Player. Windows Media Services 2008 offers twice the scalability of Windows Media Services 9 Series, so you can double the quality of your video streams or serve two times the audience when you upgrade.

In addition to its proven scalability and reliability, Windows Media Services 2008 now supports a Server Core installation, enabling reduced footprints for fixed-function streaming server scenarios, offering embedded appliance-like performance. Additionally, a cache/proxy plug-in is built in, making it easier to configure Windows Media Services for edge network enterprise and Internet topologies.

Many features of Windows Media Services that were previously available only on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise and Datacenter Editions are now available on Windows Server 2008 Standard, and all Standard features are now also available on Windows Web Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation. This makes the power of Windows Media Services 2008 available to a broader set of users at a lower cost. For more information, see Decide which version of Windows Server is right for you.

Features

The features and functions in Windows Media Services make it an ideal media server for delivering high-quality on-demand and live streaming experiences.

Multicast streaming is a one-to-many relationship between a Windows Media server and clients (Microsoft Silverlight or Windows Media Player) that receive the stream. With a multicast stream, Windows Media Services streams to a multicast IP address on the network, and all clients subscribe to the IP address to receive the same stream. This allows a single media stream to be played simultaneously by multiple clients, drastically reducing bandwidth use. Multicast is particularly useful for delivering live streams within an enterprise. To efficiently deliver a multicast stream, your network routers must be multicast-enabled. If they are not, you can still deliver content as a multicast stream over the local segment of your local area network.

A built-in WMS Cache/Proxy plug-in can be used to configure a Windows Media server either as a cache/proxy server or as a reverse proxy server so that it can provide caching and proxy support to other Windows Media servers. By caching and proxying your digital media content, you can reduce operating costs and provide a better viewing experience for users by conserving network bandwidth, decreasing network-imposed latency, and offsetting the load on the origin server.

Administrators can install the services that are required to perform the Streaming Media Services role on a Server Core installation of Windows Server 2008. The Server Core installation option is a fully functioning mode of the operating system supporting one of the designated roles, but it does not include the server graphic user interface (GUI). Because Server Core installations include only what is required for the designated roles, a Server Core installation will typically require less maintenance and fewer updates. Since there are fewer programs and components installed and running on the server, there are fewer attack vectors exposed to the network, resulting in a reduced attack surface. If a security flaw or vulnerability is discovered in a component that is not installed, a patch is not required. For more information about installing Windows Media Services on a Server Core installation, see Server Core Installation Option Getting Started Guide.

Fast Start delivers an instant-on playback experience by eliminating buffering time. When a client connects to a stream, the first few seconds of data are sent using the maximum available bandwidth so that playback can begin as soon as possible. Advanced Fast Start adds to these capabilities by allowing Windows Media Player to begin playing content as soon as its buffer receives a minimum amount of data, further reducing the amount of time a user must wait to begin receiving the stream.

Broadcast content can be archived to a file, and the archived content can be made available for on-demand requests or rebroadcast even before the broadcast is finished being archived.

In the event of an interruption, such as a power failure, broadcast publishing points can be configured to begin running again automatically whenever the Windows Media server starts, so that viewers experience less disruption when viewing streaming content.

Absolute Playlist Time adds the playlist timing value wallclock. You can use the wallclock value to automate broadcast schedules by assigning real-world clock values in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to attributes in server-side playlists.

If the primary encoder fails or is stopped, you can configure Windows Media Services to pull content from an alternate encoder or other content source after a specified period of time by using URL modifiers in the path to the primary encoder. Using redundant encoders or other alternate content sources increases the reliability of the source content.
