Sidebar: System Center Updates Publisher and Windows Server Update Services Partner Catalogs

Organizations that use Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) 2007 or Microsoft System Center Essentials (SCE) 2007 have access to System Center Updates Publisher. SCUP is a tool that lets administrators package custom updates, then publish them via Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). Microsoft also provides access to partner catalogs (Dell, HP, Intel, and Citrix) for quick deployment of updates to WSUS servers.
