WS2012 R2 versus (upcoming) WS2016 - which is better for new WSUS instance?


hello,

i need upgrade in-house wsus server.

here's wrestling with:

should roll out ws2012r2 box , run on that? or should wait ws2016 , run on that?

thoughts appreciated. esp. if there's new version of wsus coming in ws2016...

hi dick dee,

after lot of comparison, found following things:

1. original wsus version on server 2016 10.0.10586.0:

2. there new classification on wsus 2016:

haven't found other differences yet, seems wsus 2016 didn't change much, default console looks below:

both server 2012r2 , server 2016 may ok. far i'm concerned, server 2012r2 might more stable, server 2016 may have more new functions, , long-term consideration, it's better use server 2016.

best regards,

anne
