Table of contents will be added

As Acquia continues to add new products, services, and to upgrade technologies, we will enforce end-of-life (EOL) deadlines requiring action on your part. This page lists anticipated product, service, and technology end-of-life dates for Acquia’s products.

Upgrade actions
---------------

Upgrade actions include:

*   **Self-service** - Customer must conduct the necessary action to upgrade.
*   **Scheduled** - Acquia will schedule, notify, and conduct the necessary action to upgrade.
*   **Product/Feature retirement** - The product or feature will cease to be available on the date indicated, regardless of any action by the customer.
