Read MoreMicrosoft server change leaves business data vulnerable
Microsoft Corp. officially ends support for Windows Server 2003 on July 14, which means a host of security vulnerabilities will need to be addressed for millions of businesses. David Mayer, practice director of Microsoft solutions for Tempe-based Insight Enterprises Inc., is working with businesses as they prepare for the deadline and migrate data and operations off Windows Server 2003. He answered questions about the issue for the Business Journal.
Read MoreWindows Server 2003 end of support looms
Despite years of lead-time, many businesses had to scramble this year when Microsoft ended support for its incredibly popular Windows XP desktop operating system. The disruption caused by the end of support for Windows XP may be nothing compared with the disruption caused by the end of support for Windows Server 2003, slated for July 14, 2015. "When Microsoft ended support for Windows XP in April, about one quarter of U.S. businesses were still using the operating system, which caused a series of operational issues and potential security challenges," says David Mayer, practice director, Microsoft Solutions, at IT services firm Insight Enterprises.
Read MoreInsight: Windows Server migration harder than XP
Microsoft's ending of support for Windows Server 2003 will be more time consuming and more complex than the end of support for Windows XP, according to Insight. The end of support for the product could potentially impact 24 million servers running in small and large businesses and has a greater reach than the end of support for Windows XP because it affects more than just desktops, David Mayer, practice director for Microsoft solutions for Insight Enterprises said.
Read MorePrepare for Windows Server 2003's End of Support
Microsoft officially ends support for Windows Server 2003 on July 14, 2015. The deadline has some of the same ramifications that the Windows XP deadline had: Microsoft will no longer patch Windows Server 2003 for new security vulnerabilities. Presumably, Microsoft will offer expensive Custom Support Agreements for enterprises to continue getting patch support after that date, but there's been no official announcement yet. In the meantime, new security vulnerabilities keep cropping up for the aging OS. During the last full year, 2013, Microsoft released 37 critical updates for Windows Server 2003.

Windows Server 2003 expiration could present more business risk than the end of support for XP did, it is claimed. With Microsoft's support for the server set to expire in July 2015, businesses have less than a year to prepare for a migration more time consuming and complex than transitioning off the XP operating system was this April, according to an IT services firm and analyst. Insight's David Mayer, practice director for Microsoft solutions, warned that Server 2003 end-of-life would affect 24 million servers used by large and small businesses.

The Windows XP retirement scenario passed (or is passing) away without much trouble, but the windows Server 2003 retirement could prove to be a handful for those still on that old platform. Microsoft is gearing up to end support for this server version of Windows next year.

Microsoft’s ending of support for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 will be more time consuming and more complex than the end of support for Windows XP, according to technology provider Insight Enterprises. The end of service for Windows Server 2003 could potentially impact 24 million servers running small and large businesses and has a greater reach than the end of support for Windows XP because it affects more than just desktops, David Mayer, practice director, Microsoft Solutions for Insight Enterprises said.
