.. So there are more Exchange and Sharepoint on premise... the question is what exactly they mean with subscription license. And how you can counteract.
Hi,
it is not yet known whether the subscription license is a volume license (VLSC) or a Microsoft 365 subscription or a completely new type of subscription. Personally, I could imagine the latter to boost the cloud.

That's the way it looks. But I hope it stays with VLC.

With Exchange, it didn't surprise me that they don't (yet) want to force the cloud on all customers. However, I didn't expect Skype for Business Server to have an on-premise version.
Since 2016, people have been saying that there will be no further Exchange...
Yes, probably even most of those who feel overwhelmed by the administration of it hope so.

Unfortunately, it may well be that they should just look for another line of work... that would do more justice to the forum and its name again...
Hi,
who do you think you have to thank for further on-premises versions of Exchange Server, Skype and co? Certainly not the medium-sized business customers...

I'm sure of it.

The next version of Exchange Server will support in-place upgrades from Exchange Server 2019 for a period of approximately two years following release.
I'm not familiar with in-place upgrades for Exchange.
