Framework Support Policy¶
AWS Deep Learning Containers simplify image configuration for deep learning workloads and are optimized with the latest frameworks, hardware, drivers, libraries, and operating systems. This page details the framework support policy for DLCs.
Glossary¶
- GA (General Availability): The date when a framework version becomes officially supported and available for production use.
- EOP (End of Patch): The date after which a framework version no longer receives security patches or bug fixes.
Notice¶
- We are extending support for PyTorch 2.6 Inference images until end of June 2026 as these are the last available PyTorch inference images with torchserve support.

End of Patch Availability¶
After a framework version reaches its End of Patch (EOP) date, the container images will remain available on Amazon ECR and, where applicable, the Amazon ECR Public Gallery. However, these images will no longer receive security patches or bug fixes. We recommend upgrading to a supported framework version to continue receiving updates.
