Data Platforms Reaching End of Life in February 2026
Author: Tom Hoblitzell | 4 min read | February 11, 2026
When you’re working in a complex, multi-platform data estate, it’s easy to lose track of which data platform versions are nearing the end of their software lifecycle. If you miss the vendor announcements, your first sign could be a failed security audit, performance issues, or a data breach. To help you stay on top of data platforms you need to make decisions on, we have a Data Platform End of Life 2026 Calendar here, and we’ll highlight the February dates in this post for your convenience.
Data Platforms to Take Action on in February 2026
The month starts off with Databricks 17.1 reaching end of support. For Databricks, this means that support through the vendor is now unavailable, and updates are no longer applied. You’ll want to upgrade to a more recent version of Databricks, such as Databricks 17.3 LTS, to avoid unresolvable issues, and to have the migration process completed before this version reaches its final end of life date.
Google Cloud Platform Cloud SQL PostgreSQL 13.23 is also reaching end of standard support on Feb. 1, 2026. GCP auto-enrolls these instances into the extended support program, which does have a cost associated with it. You can opt-out of extended support by upgrading these PostgreSQL instances ahead of time to a more recent version, such as PostgreSQL 18.x. GCP has 3 years of extended support available, after which the service is deprecated.
MariaDB 12.1 reaches its end of community support date on Feb. 18, 2026. As a rolling release version, you’ll want to upgrade to MariaDB 12.2 or 12.3.
Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL has several versions reaching end of life on Feb. 28, 2026, including the 13.9 long-term stable release, and minor versions 13.16 to 13.23.
Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL 13.9 LTS has extended support available via AWS’s RDS Extended Support program, which is available for 3 years at an added cost. If you fail to upgrade your instance within that 3-year period, AWS will attempt to upgrade your database engine to a supported version. If that process fails, your database instance will be at risk
Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL 13.16 to 13.23 minor versions do not have extended support available. Any instances on these versions will be automatically upgraded to a supported minor version. You can also choose to manually upgrade to a different PostgreSQL version.
Finally, Redis Cluster 7.2 reaches end of life on Feb. 28, 2026. Updates will no longer be available after this date, so you’ll want to upgrade to a currently supported version. Redis Cluster 7.2 has upgrade paths from 7.2.x to 8.0.x.
