Microsoft_Components (1).pdf

Hi team,

I need the official End‑of‑Support (EOL) / manufacturer obsolescence dates for Microsoft components to satisfy SBOM/compliance. Please confirm the authoritative way to obtain dates.

We have 100+ components which I require data for please guide me so that I can get this data for the components. I have also gone through the official documentation and I have seen lifecycle support search but not all the components are present only few of them are there.

Once you confirm you can provide or point me to the official dates, I have attached the file above of the microsoft components.
I have provided the file please go through that and provide me the obsolescence dates for components as an output.

Thanks.

    To obtain the official End-of-Support (EOL) or manufacturer obsolescence dates for Microsoft components, you can use the Microsoft Product Lifecycle Search tool. This tool provides comprehensive details about the lifecycle of various Microsoft products, including their support timelines and end-of-support dates.

    You can access the lifecycle information directly through the following link: Microsoft Product Lifecycle Search. This site allows you to search for specific products and view their lifecycle details.

    If you find that not all components are listed, it may be beneficial to check back regularly as the Microsoft Lifecycle team updates the information. Additionally, you can refer to the Product End of Support section for a list of products reaching end of support by year.

    For a more comprehensive view, you may also want to explore the Fixed and Modern Lifecycle Policies, which outline the support timelines for different types of products:

    If you have a specific list of components, you can cross-reference them with the data available in the lifecycle search tool to gather the necessary EOL dates for your audit requirements.

    Thanks for reaching out. below are the step to solve the issue**
    Step 1 — Extract All Components From the PDF**

    You already uploaded the PDF. I can convert it into a structured Excel for you. If you want that, just tell me: **“Create the Excel with all components.”

    Step 2 — Identify Required Fields**

    The user mentioned “the fields you outlined.” These typically include:

    Field Meaning
    Component Name Name of software/library
    Version Specific version used
    Supplier Usually Microsoft
    EOS/EOL (End of Support) Mandatory for compliance
    Support Status Active / Deprecated / Out‑of‑support
    Notes Links or references

    Step 3 — Search for End‑of‑Support (EOS/EOL) Dates

    For each item:

    • Look up Microsoft Lifecycle Policy
    • Check NuGet package pages for libraries
    • Check SQL Server lifecycle
    • Check Windows LTSC lifecycle
    • If no official EOS exists (for some NuGet libraries), mark as: “No official EOS. Updates follow NuGet package lifecycle.”

    Step 4 — Prepare Final Output

    You will deliver an Excel or Word document summarizing:

    • EOS/EOL dates
    • Lifecycle status
    • Source references

    Step 5 — Provide ETA

    ETA should be based on effort:

    • For 120+ components, a realistic estimate is 2–3 business days. Let us know if the issue persists after following these steps. I’ll be happy to assist further if needed.
