Windows Server 2003 and SQL 2005

• End of extended support

• Windows Server 2003

• Windows Server 2003 R2

• SQL 2005

• If XP is a guide, a large number of organizations will

not be ready…

Confidential. Contents of this presentation are covered by AWS NDA. © 2015, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. All rights reserved.

What does “End of Extended Support” mean?

No more patches and updates without a custom support agreement

• Vulnerabilities in web servers running IIS on Windows Server 2003 will no longer be patched

• Vulnerabilities in other internet-facing services (e.g. DNS) no longer patched

• Services and applications hosted on Windows Server 2003, even if supported, become more vulnerable

Customers can still get support, but it will be expensive
