Where can I find information on the future of WSUS for environments that are only on-prem with no internet connectivity for the clients?

Other than the blog post at Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) deprecation - Windows IT Pro Blog, there's no additional information to share. Keep in mind that this post is meant to indicate our future intention and not to cause immediate action for customers as actual retirement is still ~10 years away. We fully appreciate that folks will want to begin planning because of this, but for now, we have nothing additional to share for air-gapped scenarios although this is top of mind for us, and we will share information as we are ready to share it.

WSUS is included in Windows Server 2025, which has a product lifecycle documented at Windows Server 2025 - Microsoft Lifecycle | Microsoft Learn.
Thanks. I was told that WSUS would be phased-out and wanted to confirm when that would occur.

Like Jason posted, you have a ~10 year runway, so lots of time before that happens.
