# Guest OS Family 2, 3, and 4 retirement notice
16
+
17
+
The retirement of Azure Guest OS Families 2, 3, and 4 was announced in July 2024, with the following end-of-life dates:
18
+
-**Windows Server 2008 R2:** December 2024
19
+
-**Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2:** February 2025
20
+
21
+
If you have questions, visit the [Microsoft question page for Cloud Services](/answers/topics/azure-cloud-services.html) or [contact Azure support](https://azure.microsoft.com/support/options/).
22
+
23
+
## Are you affected?
24
+
25
+
Your Cloud Services or [Cloud Services Extended Support](../cloud-services-extended-support/overview.md) are affected if any one of the following applies:
26
+
27
+
1. You have a value of `osFamily` = `2`, `3`, or `4` explicitly specified in the `ServiceConfiguration.cscfg` file for your Cloud Service.
28
+
1. The Azure portal lists your Guest Operating System family value as *Windows Server 2008 R2*, *Windows Server 2012*, or *Windows Server 2012 R2*.
29
+
30
+
To find which of your cloud services are running which OS Family, you can run the following script in Azure PowerShell, though you must [set up Azure PowerShell](/powershell/azure/) first.
Your cloud services are impacted by this retirement if the `osFamily` column in the script output contains a `2`, `3`, `4`, or is empty. If empty, the default `osFamily` column value is `5`.
43
+
44
+
## Recommendations
45
+
46
+
If you're affected, we recommend you migrate your Cloud Service or [Cloud Services Extended Support](../cloud-services-extended-support/overview.md) roles to one of the supported Guest OS Families:
47
+
48
+
**Guest OS family 7.x** - Windows Server 2022 *(recommended)*
49
+
50
+
1. Ensure that your application is using Visual Studio 2019 or newer with Azure Development Workload as selected and your application is targeting .NET framework version 4.8 or newer.
51
+
1. Set the osFamily attribute to "7" in the `ServiceConfiguration.cscfg` file, and redeploy your cloud service.
52
+
53
+
**Guest OS family 6.x** - Windows Server 2019
54
+
55
+
1. Ensure that your application is using SDK 2.9.6 or later and your application is targeting .NET framework 3.5 or 4.7.2 or newer.
56
+
1. Set the osFamily attribute to "6" in the `ServiceConfiguration.cscfg` file, and redeploy your cloud service.
57
+
58
+
## Important clarification regarding support
59
+
60
+
The announcement of the retirement of Azure Guest OS Families 2, 3, and 4, effective May 2025, pertains specifically to the operating systems within these families. This retirement doesn't extend the overall support timeline for Azure Cloud Services (classic) beyond the scheduled deprecation in August 2024. [Cloud Services Extended Support](../cloud-services-extended-support/overview.md) continues support with Guest OS Families 5 and newer.
61
+
62
+
Customers currently using Azure Cloud Services who wish to continue receiving support beyond August 2024 are encouraged to transition to [Cloud Services Extended Support](../cloud-services-extended-support/overview.md). This separate service offering ensures continued assistance and support. Cloud Services Extended Support requires a distinct enrollment and isn't automatically included with existing Azure Cloud Services subscriptions.
63
+
64
+
## Next steps
65
+
66
+

Your Cosmos DB operational data is incrementally replicated into Fabric OneLake in near real-time. Data in OneLake is stored in open-source Delta Parquet format and made available to all analytical engines in Fabric. With open access, you can use it with various Azure services such as Azure Databricks, Azure HDInsight, and more. OneLake also helps unify your data estate for your analytical needs. Mirrored data can be joined with any other data in OneLake, such as Lakehouses, Warehouses or shortcuts. You can also join Azure Cosmos DB data with other mirrored database sources such as Azure SQL Database, Snowflake.
