Azure Front Door (classic) retiring


Description

Microsoft is retiring Azure Front Door (classic) starting from March 31, 2027. Beginning April 1, 2025, you will no longer be able to create new Front Door (classic) resources via the Azure portal, Terraform, or any command line tools. However, you can continue to make modifications to the existing resources until Front Door (classic) has been fully retired.

Azure Front Door Standard and Premium combine the capabilities of static and dynamic content delivery with turnkey security, enhanced DevOps experiences, simplified pricing, and better Azure integrations. Learn more about what’s included with Front Door Standard and Premium and review the pricing of each tier.

Solution

To avoid potential disruptions in service, migrate to Azure Front Door Standard or Premium by March 31, 2027. Additionally, we recommend that you start creating new resources on Front Door Standard or Premium, and that you use Standard or Premium API and command line tools in your DevOps workflow.
