News on Windows Server

Microsoft’s August 2026 Product Terms strip the warranty from paid consulting deliverables, put Web IQ outside the DPA, and extend EA/EAS Windows Server ESU terms to Azure and Azure Arc. Government plans now qualify for Microsoft 365 Copilot, and the Defender Experts family gets new names.

Three Product Terms changes in one update: Azure Arc pay-as-you-go no longer needs a pre-existing licence, ESU Cloud Managed drops the Enterprise edition requirement, and Entra ID Governance gets a new name.
