Microsoft
is releasing a major update to Windows 10 called the Windows 10 Creators Update:
This new update includes a number of features specifically aimed at enterprise and business users. These include:
- Windows Security Center
- Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection
- In-place UEFI conversion
Differential downloads for Windows 10
Microsoft is also changing their packaging of major Windows 10 updates from full operating system downloads to smaller, incremental downloads. This new delivery method is called the Unified Update Platform (UUP).
The new UUP delivery method will provide only the Windows 10 patches that have been released since the last time a desktop was updated.
Will this work with EBS?
Yes. Windows 10 is certified with all current EBS releases, including EBS 12.1 and 12.2. This existing certification is expected to apply to the upcoming Windows 10 Creators Update release.
The Unified Update Platform is not expected to require an additional certification. Microsoft emphasizes that nothing changes with Windows 10 itself -- this only modifies the way that Win10 patches are delivered:
It’s important to note that with UUP, nothing will look or behave differently on the surface, UUP is all underlying platform and service optimization that happens behind the scenes.
