Windows update rings
Windows-Update-Ringe
Update rings (built on Windows Update for Business) control deferral, deadlines, restart behavior, and the user experience for Windows updates. You roll updates out in phases - e.g. a pilot ring first, then broadly - to reduce risk. Feature, quality, and driver updates are orchestrated through Windows Autopatch.
