7. One month retirement notice:
Access Control Service
• Since the ACS retirement announcement last year, many customers have reached out for our guidance and
have completed their migration. Some customers communicated that their migration has started but will
not complete before the deadline. We have decided to offer an extension to February 4, 2019. Failure to
opt into the extension will result in your namespace being turned off on November 7, 2018. At that point,
all requests to the namespace will fail.
