Alongside the Windows 10 Technical Preview, Microsoft also kicked off a preview for the next version of Windows Server, coming in 2016 and sensibly titled Windows Server 2016. Back in April, Microsoft released a second build of Windows Server 2016, titled Technical Preview 2 and included a number of improvements and features. Today, Gabe Aul has confirmed that a Technical Preview 3 is coming this month.
Gabe was not too specific on the details regarding Technical Preview 3, but we assume it will include a whole bunch of changes and improvements over the last two Technical Preview builds. Furthermore, I also believe the build issued will be one higher than 10240, which is to be expected.

@LiamBramwell A new RSAT for Windows 10 will be released this month, along with Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 3

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
