# Elastic Beanstalk platform versions scheduled for retirement
<a name="platforms-retiring"></a>

Amazon Elastic Beanstalk provides managed platforms that support running web applications developed for specific programming languages, frameworks, and web containers. Elastic Beanstalk offers one or more platform versions for each platform. For details about currently supported platform versions, see [Elastic Beanstalk supported platforms](platforms-supported.md).

This page lists platform versions that Elastic Beanstalk has scheduled for retirement, because some of their components are reaching their End of Life (EOL). These platform versions remain available until the published retirement date of their retiring components. For a list of component retirement dates, see [Amazon Elastic Beanstalk platform schedules](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/platforms-schedule.html) in the *Amazon Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide*.

**Note**  
On [July 18, 2022](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/elasticbeanstalk/latest/relnotes/release-2022-07-18-linux-al1-retire.html) Elastic Beanstalk set the status of all platform branches based on Amazon Linux AMI (AL1) to **retired**. For more information, see [AL1 platform retirement FAQ](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/using-features.migration-al.FAQ.html) in the *Amazon Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide*.

## .NET on Windows Server
<a name="platforms-retiring.net"></a>

**Note**  
  
Elastic Beanstalk platform branches based on *Windows Server 2016* and *Windows Server Core 2016* will retire on **September 30, 2026**. Additionally, all Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) for these platform branches will become inaccessible on **January 15, 2027**. This is to ensure that customer Elastic Beanstalk environments are aligned with the most current support offered by Amazon.  
Starting on September 30, 2026, retired platform branches will no longer be available for new environments on Elastic Beanstalk. While you can continue to operate existing environments running on retired platform branches, these branches will no longer receive security updates, platform updates, or bug fixes from Elastic Beanstalk, creating significant security and operational risks. After January 15, 2027, the default AMIs associated with these platform branches will be inaccessible, and any activity that attempts to launch new EC2 instances based on these AMIs will fail, including auto-scaling, instance replacement, and application or configuration deployments that launch new instances.  
We strongly recommend that you start planning your migration to a current and fully supported Windows Server platform, such as *Windows Server 2025 with IIS 10.0*, *Windows Server 2022 with IIS 10.0*, or *Windows Server 2019 with IIS 10.0*. For a list of currently supported platforms see [Elastic Beanstalk supported platforms](platforms-supported.md).  
If you cannot migrate to a fully supported platform, you can use a custom AMI with Windows Server 2016 as the base image. For detailed instructions, see [Preserving access to an AMI for a retired platform](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/using-features.customenv-env-copy.html) in the *Amazon Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide*. If you need temporary access to an AMI while you perform a migration, contact Amazon Support.

Elastic Beanstalk has scheduled the following .NET on Windows Server platform versions for retirement.
