Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2 products are approaching extended support end of life on the 14th of Jan 2010.

Best to start planning moving off Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2 this year.

I know i have a tonne of Windows Server 2008 R2 servers in the environment that i need to migrate to Windows Server 2012 R2 or even Windows Server 2016.
For example, SharePoint 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2 so will be migrating to a SharePoint 2016 Farm on Windows Server 2012 R2.
