Pega deployment Manager support for on-prem Pega installations
Hi Team, Pega is deployed on-prem in our organization and we are using Pega deployment Manager 5.6 currently. I understand that PDM 5.x will reach end of life support in September 2025 and support will end in September 2026 as per https://community.pega.com/event/migrating-pega-deployment-manager-5x-p… Would you please suggest what is the strategy for on-prem Pega installations using PDM 5.x. Thank you

@HariChandanaS16939997 Hi Hari, as per the documentation, Starting from September 30, 2025, the Standard Support period for Deployment Manager 5 on Pega Cloud ends. As a result, existing Pega Cloud clients that are currently using Deployment Manager 5 enter the Extended Support period. During the Extended Support period, you can expect continued support from the Pega Support team. After September 30, 2026, clients using Deployment Manager 5 will reach End of Life status and will no longer receive support.
The effects to you are as follows:
- Pega Cloud
-
- Deployment Manager service is the standard and best solution, available exclusively on Pega Cloud, and is designed to deliver a modern, integrated CI/CD experience with enhanced best practices and integration.
- You are encouraged to plan an update to the Deployment Manager service that is available on Pega Cloud 3.
For more information, see Updating to Deployment Manager service.
