"AWS recently announced significant lifecycle changes for over 20 services and features, classifying them as Maintenance, Sunset, or End of Support. The first wave of change occurred last year, when AWS abruptly discontinued new customer access to several long-standing managed services (such as the source control AWS CodeCommit), effective in July 2024 and later in October (including AWS App Mesh and Amazon FSx File Gateway). Now, for the second time, the company has initiated a significant review of its product portfolio, announcing availability changes across"
"Core Data and Storage: The change for Amazon Glacier (the original standalone vault-based service) is primarily an API consolidation. Corey Quinn, in a lastweekinaws blog post, noted that this is a "red herring," as the preferred S3 Glacier storage classes remain fully available, and AWS is simply removing the older, "profoundly annoying" separate APIs. Similarly, Amazon S3 Object Lambda is being removed, as its functionality is superseded mainly by standard Lambda operations on S3."
AWS initiated lifecycle changes affecting more than 20 services and features, categorizing them as Maintenance, Sunset, or End of Support. A prior wave removed new-customer access to several longstanding managed services in July and October 2024. The current review reflects a strategic consolidation to eliminate low-adoption offerings. Services entering Maintenance will not accept new customers from November 7, 2025, while existing customers can continue use and plan migrations. Core Data and Storage changes include an Amazon Glacier API consolidation and removal of S3 Object Lambda. Developer and specialized tools such as CodeCatalyst, Cloud Directory, CodeGuru Reviewer, Fraud Detector, and .NET Modernization Tools are also affected. Management and mainframe services are being consolidated into new offerings.
