MCSE Server 2016 - Core Infrastructure??

From what I under stand the 70-740/741/742 get you an MCSA in Server 2016. You can then add on 70-744 to get your MCSE in Core Infrastructure. Is this correct and will that sill be the case in 2019?  I tried to find the info on Microsoft's site, but the link was not working.

the 70-740/741/742 would earn you the MCSA. If you then took the 70-744, you'd earn MCSE: Cloud and Platform Infrastructure.  However, this cert looks to be expiring Dec 31, 2018.

Looks like the MCSE: Core Infrastructure will be the new name in 2019

Until end of 2018 (in 4 days) add on 70-744 after MCSA Server 2016 will get you MCSE: Cloud Platform and Infrastructure. 

In 2019 will get MCSE in Core Infrastructure instead as Cloud Platform and Infrastructure will be retired.

Makes sense to retire it, since Microsoft now has role-based certs for Azure

Will still be the case in January, just named differently(MCSE Core Infrastructure). I'm taking the 70-744 in January so on this same track. Search 'mcse core infrastructure certification' on google and go to images for a layout(won't let me add here).
