Check out the Windows Server 2008 End Of Support FAQ document Support for the RTM version of Windows Server 2008 R2 ended on April 9, 2013, and users will not be able to receive further security updates for the operating system, due to new policies requiring Service Pack 1 to continue to be supported with security updates, lasting until the end of support lifecycle for that Windows operating system.

It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone - but for a lot of folks with lots going on - they can forget our broad support policy (found here: Microsoft LifeCycle Fixed Policy - Operating Systems) which gives you 10 years of support that eventually comes to an end. For more information, see: KB91432 - Support for Windows 7/Server 2008/2008 R2 after January 2020. What does this mean? In simple terms - if you are running any Windows Server 2008 / 2008 R2 servers in your environment - they will no longer be receiving regular updates from Microsoft AND you will not be able to contact technical support to open tickets or have even basic questions answered about the operating system. The time has come - we are officially at the End of Support for Windows Server 2008.
