Question 1

What happens when Amazon Cdk reaches end of life?

Accepted Answer

When Amazon Cdk reaches end of life, it stops receiving security patches, bug fixes, and new features.  The latest supported version is Amazon Cdk 2. Running an EOL version exposes your systems to unpatched security vulnerabilities with no official fix available.

Question 2

Is Amazon Cdk 2 still supported?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Amazon Cdk 2 is actively supported. It receives security patches and bug fixes. Check the version table above for the full list of supported Amazon Cdk releases and their exact end-of-life dates.

Question 3

Is it safe to use Amazon Cdk after end of life?

Accepted Answer

No. Running Amazon Cdk after EOL is not safe for production systems. Once a version reaches end of life, newly discovered CVEs are published publicly but never patched — leaving your systems permanently exposed. The only safe path is upgrading to an actively supported Amazon Cdk release.

Question 4

How to upgrade from Amazon Cdk to Amazon Cdk 2.x?

Accepted Answer

To upgrade Amazon Cdk to the latest version: (1) review the official migration guide for breaking changes, (2) test your application against the new version in a staging environment, (3) update dependencies that have version constraints, (4) run your full test suite, (5) deploy with a rollback plan. The earlier you start, the more time you have to resolve compatibility issues before EOL.

Question 5

When is the next Amazon Cdk LTS version?

Accepted Answer

Not all Amazon Cdk releases have a designated LTS status. Check the version table above — LTS releases are marked with an "LTS" badge. Refer to the official Amazon Cdk release policy for information on upcoming long-term support versions.

Question 6

How long does Amazon Cdk support each version?

Accepted Answer

Support duration varies by release. Check the version table above for the exact EOL date of each Amazon Cdk release, or refer to the official Amazon Cdk support lifecycle documentation.
