End of Life Azure VM size series

This article lists the size series in the End of Life lifecycle stage. End of Life series have an announced retirement. For series that need them, modernization guides help you move to replacement sizes.

Note

End of Life series aren't retired yet and can still be used until their retirement date. However, series with an announced retirement have restrictions when you deploy through new subscriptions. To view retired size series, see Retired and retiring VM size series.

What are End of Life size series?

End of Life virtual machine size series run on older hardware and have an announced retirement date. While they're still supported until retirement, plan and complete your modernization to Current or Extended sizes. Use Current sizes for new deployments.

To learn more about the Current, Extended, End of Life, and Retired lifecycle stages, see the VM lifecycle overview.
