Microsoft to unveil new patch management software
April 21, 2006Windows Server Update Services 3.0 is slated for launch in 2007
WSUS is a free alternative to Microsoft's Systems Management Server (SMS) product that gives customers a way to control the deployment of Microsoft patches and security updates. It will be shown in public for the first time during an April 27 session at the systems management conference.
The new MMC-based interface will give customers an improved view of how their patch deployments are rolling out and will allow them to roll reports from a variety of different servers into one root server, Dadzie said.
