![]() VMware vCenter Server and vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 6.5 & 6.7 It’s very uncommon to see both versions expire at the same time, but this was due to VMware announcing an extended EoGS date for ESXi 6.5. No EoTG phase exists for vRealize Log Insight VMware Cloud Director follows VMware’s Enterprise Application Support policy, meaning there is only an EoGS phase, no EoTG No EoTG phase exists for VMware Cloud Foundation The VMware products that Veeam integrates with that reach EoGS in 2023 are: Product For example, Veeam CDP leverages the VMware vSphere APIs for IO Filtering (VAIO), this was made available within vSphere 6.0 U1, however Veeam don’t support CDP on any versions less than vSphere 6.5. Once the End of Technical Guidance has been reached, the product is no longer available from VMware to purchase or download.Īlthough Veeam perform best efforts to support products for a little while after their EoGS, this becomes a lower priority and can result in reduced feature availability vs a fully supported platform. VMware only recommend using their products in this stage in very specific use cases. Once a product is End of General Support (EoGS), it will no longer receive any updates, or support for new hardware as examples.Īfter the EoGS, VMware migrate to End of Technical Guidance (EoTG) and will recommend self-help and provide best effort support for low criticality issues to provide workarounds when using a supported configuration. VMware offer multiple stages of end of life, these are: Microsoft also have a great export tool you can use to get lifecycle information based on family, group, and support dates. Information available hereįor more information on the specifics of the Microsoft products approaching end of life, be sure to check out Microsoft’s Documentation. To benefit from extended security updates this workload will need to be running on an applicable Azure compute option or a valid Microsoft support contract will be necessary. Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Extended Security Update Year 1 This is only available for customers on Microsoft Azure Microsoft SQL Server 2008/2008 R2 Extended Security Update Year 4 ![]() All workloads using this will stop on the 1st March 2023 and won’t be able to start. Microsoft Azure Virtual Machine (classic)įull notes here. Starting on the 31st January, Microsoft will stop support for reading Microsoft Teams data via EWS, and to protect Teams data, the new (metered) API will need to be used. Windows Server 2008 / 2008 R2, Extended Security Update Year 3Īn extended security update (ESU) program does not exist for Windows 8.1, there is no option to receive extended support for this operating system. Without a valid Microsoft support contract or running this workload on Microsoft Azure, you will already be end of life for updates. Windows 7, Extended Security Update Year 3 ![]() ![]() If you required the use of the one-time re-enablement for Basic Authentication, this will be permanently disabled the first week of 2023. ProductĮxchange Online – Basic Authentication Retirement This list is focused on releases that are approaching the end of their extended support. Microsoft have their standard, or “mainstream” support offerings which include new features, and their “extended” support which includes only security fixes. Microsoft have many software lifecycles that they manage, however I’m just focusing on the ones that are supported directly with Veeam via some form of integration or operating system. We may as well start with one of, or potentially the largest software vendor in the world. With this in mind, let’s explore the software & operating systems being declared end of life in 2023 so we can start planning our upgrades/migrations if necessary. Without valid support there’s no process to get a fix, and whilst your backup software may still be in support with Veeam, if the vendor won’t fix the problem, it’s time to start panicking. NET framework update, or anything else really, could end up with the software no longer being backed up properly, or not working at all in production. At any point, a patch to an operating system, a. Times change, and software changes with them, until it’s no longer supported. Why does this matter when I’m just trying to protect the data? Complementing my last post highlighting the Veeam software releases reaching end of support in 2023, I’m once again providing an expanded list of software that Veeam works with, that will be approaching end of life in 2023.
