Reminder that CF2021 is end-of-life as of Monday Nov 10 2025

This coming Monday, Nov 10 2025, marks the end of Adobe support of CF2021. After that date, Adobe is no longer obligated to offer updates for ColdFusion 2021 (not even security updates--and buying "extended support" DOES NOT CHANGE that!)

There's more to consider. For that, read on.

Beware that ColdFusion 2021 end-of-life (and end of updates) is coming Nov 2025, and your options

Are you still running ColdFusion 2021? While it's still supported/updated by Adobe, did you know that its end of life is coming just several months from now, Nov 10, 2025? That's the date when "core" support for that release ends--meaning no more updates from Adobe after that, not even security fixes.

What about more recent releases, if you may wonder? CF 2023 (the current latest release) will get updates into 2028 (5 years after it was release). And there's the coming CF 2025 release, currently in pre-release (as I have recently blogged about), which is of course a great sign for the continued vitality of CF.

But this looming deadline for CF2021 is a reminder that as the years roll on, we not only get new versions but we must say good-bye to old ones.

Wondering what you can do? or when CF2023 or CF2025 support will end also? And what's the difference between "core" support and the available "extended" support which Adobe sells? (The extended support plan does NOT provide updates beyond this coming November.) For more on these, including official Adobe documentation that discusses such things, as well as my thoughts on migration, costs, various options to consider, and more, do read on.
