In our company we are planning to do Windows 2008 R2 migration due to End of Support it reached. We're not that fans of living on edge but this time it appear to be wiser target to Windows Server 2019, not 2016 (so we'll live with for years further).
While reading on this topic and looking for best practice approaches I can see many people recommend to do step-by-step migration (2008R2 -> 2012 -> 2016 -> 2019), but in our case it appears to be very lengthy and error-prone way, isn't it? At the same time, looks like we can do that in one giant step (2008R2 -> 2019) so I would like to ask your advice, is it true?
