This post announced the Dec. 31, 2026 retirement of Azure FXT Edge Filer hardware and software. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/fxtretirement/

Is Avere vFXT for Azure also facing a similar retirement (in favor of, say, HPC Cache) or will that product be supported for the foreseeable future? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/avere-vfxt/avere-vfxt-overview

Thank you!

    This retirement announcement is only for the FXT. Both vFXT and HPC Cache solutions are not affected by this announcement.
