All -
We know that Consumer users will be straight automatic updates and features
(Current Branch) which may or may not include fast and slow rings.
We know that LTSB Enterprise Customers will get Security updates only, and no
new features, controlled by SCCM, EMS, and WSUS.
What's muddy is the Windows Update for Business, which won't be fully
implemented until 2016. This includes presumably slower updates and features
after MS, insiders, and Consumers get updates, and business will have up to a
year to install them using Current Branch for Business (CBB). Are there slow
and fast rings within this realm? As well as a "No" ring (also used for
critical systems) in which IT manages updates via SCCM, EMS, and WSUS after
extensive testing? If a client has SCCM, but would prefer to manage what
updates their business gets via some cloud platform, and doesn't have to
download updates to DPs and push them out, his this even an option? Intune
perhaps? I'm trying to determine what this "hybrid" model looks like where you
have some users in an organization managed by SCCM, and others by essentially
automatic updates, but in slower (business) rings. Is Windows Update for
Business only peer-to-peer?
Any one have a clear direction and understanding on this that could shed some
light?
Much appreciated!
