Release: Elastic Beanstalk Windows Server platform update on December 28, 2022 - AWS Elastic Beanstalk

Release: Elastic Beanstalk Windows Server platform update on December 28, 2022

This release provides new Windows Server platform versions for AWS Elastic Beanstalk. The release applies Windows security updates. It also updates framework and AWS components.

Release date: December 28, 2022

Windows Platform Version 2.10.7

This release introduced TLS v1.2 to Elastic Beanstalk platform branches Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2012. Subsequent releases of these platform branches include TLS v1.2 or later versions. Note that Windows Server 2012 is now retired. For a list of the most recent and supported Windows Server platform versions, see Supported Platforms in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Platforms guide.

As of December 31 2023, AWS started fully enforcing TLS 1.2 across all AWS API endpoints. As a result, any environments running Windows platform versions that are older than the versions of Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2012 in this release still use TLS 1.0 and 1.1. Applications running on these older versions, may no longer be able to perform actions such as configuration deployments, application deployments, auto scaling, new environment launch, log rotation and enhanced health reports.

To avoid the risk of availability impact, please upgrade your platform versions to a newer version as soon as possible.

Changes

The following table lists the changes included in this release.

  • These release notes focus on changes to currently supported platform branches. For full version information of Elastic Beanstalk retiring (deprecated) platform branches, see Elastic Beanstalk platform versions scheduled for retirement in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Platforms guide.

  • Be aware that at the time these release notes are published, the new platform versions might not yet be available in all the AWS Regions that Elastic Beanstalk supports. It might take a few hours for the release to complete.
