Change and Impact

To better serve our users, Alibaba Cloud Realtime Compute for Apache Flink has established a comprehensive Engine Lifecycle Management system (Lifecycle Policies). We would like to remind you to review these policies and check via the console or OpenAPI whether your current jobs are still running on versions that have reached End of Support (EOS).

Currently, VVR versions 1.x, 2.x, 3.x, 4.x, 6.x (excluding 6.0.7), and 8.x (excluding 8.0.11 and other specific sub-versions) have reached EOS status. These versions no longer receive technical support or security updates. To prevent potential security risks or stability issues from affecting your business, we strongly recommend that you upgrade your jobs as soon as possible. Due to space limitations, please refer to the Release Notes for specific versions and their respective EOS dates.
