Release Highlights

• Node.js 18 End-of-Life: Per the official Node.js release timeline, Node.js 18 will reach its official end-of-life on April 30, 2025. After this date, security updates and critical bug fixes will cease. Upgrading to a supported Node.js version is strongly recommended to maintain platform support.

• Support Policy: Azure SDK libraries are not guaranteed to work on platforms or dependencies which are end-of-life. Dropping support for those may occur without a major version increment. Migrate to supported platforms and dependencies to ensure continued technical support.
