==Servicing channels==
Windows Server has the following release channels available. They are:
 
*Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)
*Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)
 
The Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) is no longer available as of August 9, 2022 - there will be no future SAC releases for Windows Server.
 
===Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)===
The Long-Term Servicing Channel is the release cycle most Windows Server releases follow. Typically, the LTSC channel sees a new major release every 2-3 years. Users are entitled to 5 years of mainstream support, and 5 years of extended support, for a total of 10 years of support.
 
===Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)===
The Semi-Annual Channel was intended to allow Windows Server customers to take advantage of newer operating system capabilities at a faster pace, focused mainly on containers and microservices. Each release in the SAC was supported for 18 months from the initial release. As of August 9, 2022, this channel has been retired and no future releases will be made.
