Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for MySQL announces Amazon RDS Extended Support minor version 5.7.44-RDS.20240529. We recommend that you upgrade to this version to fix known security vulnerabilities and bugs in prior versions of MySQL.
Amazon RDS Extended Support provides you more time, up to three years, to upgrade to a new major version to help you meet your business requirements. During Extended Support, Amazon RDS will provide critical security and bug fixes for your MySQL and PostgreSQL databases after the community ends support for a major version. You can run your MySQL databases on Amazon RDS with Extended Support for up to three years beyond a major version’s end of standard support date. Learn more about Extended Support in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
You can leverage automatic minor version upgrades to automatically upgrade your databases to more recent minor versions during scheduled maintenance windows. Learn more about upgrading your database instances, including automatic minor version upgrades, in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
