In addition, we regret to inform you that starting January 13, 2025, the AWS SDK for PHP will cease support for PHP runtimes 8.0.x and below, as PHP 8.0.x reached its end-of-life on November 26, 2023. Moreover, PHP versions 7.2.x, 7.3.x, and 7.4.x will also be unsupported since they have been out of service since 2020, 2021, and 2022, respectively. Users on these runtimes are encouraged to upgrade to maintain compatibility. You can find more comprehensive guidelines on this topic here.
We would also like to announce the end-of-support for Node.js 16.x in the AWS SDK for JavaScript (v3), effective January 6, 2025. While this is distinct from AWS Lambda’s deprecation of Node.js 16.x, which started on June 12, 2024, it’s important for developers to transition to newer versions as Node.js 16.x reached end-of-life on September 11, 2023.
Furthermore, we are excited to introduce the AWS Message Processing Framework for .NET, now in developer preview. This framework simplifies the creation of .NET applications for message processing using AWS services, such as Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS, and Amazon EventBridge. This new tool is designed to enhance developer efficiency.
As part of our continuous improvement efforts, we are also announcing the end-of-support for AWS SDK for JavaScript v2, which will enter maintenance mode on September 8, 2024, and will no longer be supported from September 8, 2025. Applications using this SDK will continue to function unless there are significant changes to the underlying AWS services.
For developers using .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.5 with the AWS SDK for .NET, please note that we have updated the minimum target framework to .NET 4.7.2. This change allows access to enhanced crypto algorithms and aligns with the long-term direction of the SDK.
Lastly, we are pleased to announce default payload compression for the Amazon CloudWatch PutMetricData operation available through the AWS SDKs. This feature automatically compresses metric data during transmission, thus improving bandwidth efficiency and reducing latency.
