Platform deprecation |
Today we're announcing that platform branch Windows Server 2012 with IIS 8 will retire on May 31, 2022. This platform branch is now deprecated. This retiring platform branch is composed of two platform versions: Windows Server 2012 with IIS 8 version 0.1.0 and Windows Server 2012 with IIS 8 version 1.2.0. If you currently use this retiring platform branch, we strongly recommend that you start planning your migration to one of the Windows Server version 2 platforms, which are current and fully supported:
For full migration considerations, see Major Version Migration in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide. Deprecated platform branches aren't listed on the Supported platforms page of the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Platforms guide. They are listed on a separate page, Retiring platform versions. For more information about platform deprecation, see Elastic Beanstalk platform support policy in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide. |
