    This deprecation follows the announcement in v44.0.0 . The deprecation phase is planned to last until v53.0.0 (expected end of October 2024), in which the deprecated version will become unsupported. The creation of new a9s Data Service instances for this particular version will then be disabled by default in the a9s Data Service Bundle and we will not provide regular support for this version. The corresponding documentation will also be removed. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you start your migrations to a supported GA version as soon as possible and complete them until the end of the deprecation phase.
