ConfigMgr 2010 Release Date Predictions | SCCM

Let’s check ConfigMgr 2010 Release Date Predictions. Is there one favorite date for the release of the ConfigMgr production version?

Were the 1810 and 1910 versions of Configuration Manager released on the same date? Will this happen again for the SCCM 2010 production release?

I made some predictions about the release date with the community. You can read more details at SCCM Release Dates Predictions Analysis from Community.

I know Microsoft MEM is driven more by the quality of the product than any particular release date.

Hey there! Just a quick reminder that Microsoft released the 2010 version on November 30, 2020. Don’t miss this update! Microsoft released the 2010 version on November 30, 2020.

ConfigMgr Release Cycles

This is my understanding of the ConfigMgr release cycle. There are Five (5) ConfigMgr Release Rings. The previous post provides more details.

  1. Internal validation
  2. Escrow
  3. TP (Technical Preview)
  4. TAP (Technology Adoption Program)
  5. Production
    1. Fast Ring (enabled with PowerShell Script)
    2. Slow Ring (Available on all ONLINE installations)

ConfigMgr 2010 Release Date Predictions

I can’t bet on the release date as of now. I don’t know whether it’s going to be any of the following dates or not. The most probable release dates are mentioned below:

These dates are based on the following analysis: All the previous ConfigMgr production versions (the last release of the calendar year) were released before December (not all, of course!).

However, there is one instance where the current branch of Configuration Manager CB version (1511) was released on December 8, 2015.

  • 1710 was released on Monday, November 20, 2017
  • 1810 was released on Tuesday, November 27, 2018
  • 1910 Released on Wednesday, November 27, 2019
  • 2010 will be released on Friday 27th or 30th of Nov 2020? Or will this be released in December similarly to the first version of ConfigMgr Current Branch?

What do you think?
