The Countdown to End-of-Support
© Zynstra Ltd 2014. Commercial-in-confidence. Slide 4
The impact of End-of-Support
Increased costs
The costs of maintaining your
legacy servers can add up quickly.
Staying put will likely cost more in
the end.
No more updates
In 2013, 37 critical updates were
released – no more will be
developed or released after end of
support.
Security risks
91% increase in targeted attack
campaigns & globally over 522M
identities were exposed via breaches*
Non-compliance
Lack of compliance with various
standards and regulations can be
devastating.

Your options
3. Cloud only
Connectivity? Performance?
What about the IT that has to be
local? Gateway, Security,
File+Print?
1. Do nothing
The question regarding moving
away from 2003 shouldn’t be if but
when.
2. Traditional on-premise
Up front costs, fixed solution, minimal
room for flexibility and scalability.
4. Hybrid IT
“Hybrid IT environments (combining
on-premise and cloud) will remain the
foreseeable norm”.

Move the remaining on-site IT to Zynstra!
• Microsoft's replacement for SMBs is
Windows Server 2012 Essentials, quite a
different animal altogether
– Just 25 users (and 50 devices)
• If you have more users you have to buy
Windows Server 2012 Standard
– You have to look after it yourself
– It’s CAPEX not OPEX
– You have to refresh every 3-5 years
• A Cloud Managed Server Appliance from
Zynstra is the perfect answer
– HP and Microsoft are endorse our solution

Editor's Notes

  • #5 Mainstream support from Microsoft for Windows Server 2003 ended in July 2010. Windows Server 2003/R2 has been on Extended Support since then, which means only security updates are released. July 14, 2015 is the End of Support for Windows Server 2003/R2.
  • #27 Step one: The first step is to discover and catalog all of the software and workloads that are running on Windows Server 2003/R2. Do you have a good grasp on exactly what is still running on Windows Server 2003/R2? A thorough discovery process is essential because you cannot address the problem if you do not know what the problem is. To help with this, Microsoft have produced a toolkit which you can download for free. Microsoft Assessment and Planning (MAP) Toolkit. Step two: Once you have a catalog, you will need to assess what is in that catalog. This means categorizing your applications and workloads in several ways and doing a thorough analysis of what is there. We suggest you consider categorizing your applications and workloads in four ways: By type, By criticality, By complexity and By risk. With this categorization complete, you can begin to understand the scope of the problem and can prioritize your workloads and applications. The categorization will also reveal some potential opportunities, as well as potential issues. Step three: You must choose a migration destination for each application and workload. Different workloads and applications will logically lead to certain targets. Others could offer the possibility of migration to one or more of these destinations. The choice will be driven by factors such as speed and ease of migration, cost, and desired functionality in the migrated solution. Step four: With an understanding of what is still running on Widows Server 2003, what needs to migrate when, and where to migrate to, you can make a plan and begin to migrate. But arriving at this state (that is, making these choices) may require some additional analysis and perhaps assistance. The migration itself can be facilitated by both third-party products and services.
