Windows Server 2019 – now available in preview

Yesterday (March 20th) was a big day for Windows Server! On behalf of the entire Windows Server team, Erin Chapple (Director of Program Management, Windows Server) announced Windows Server 2019 will be generally available in the second half of calendar year 2018. Starting now, you can access the preview build through Microsoft’s Insiders program.

Windows Server 2019 is built on the strong foundation of Windows Server 2016 – which continues to see great momentum in customer adoption.

We’ve been busy since its launch at Ignite 2016 drawing insights from your feedback and product telemetry to make this release even better.
