# Runtime support

Runtimes on Cloud Run functions are base images that include components and operating system,
software required to build and execute code written for a specific
programming language, and software to support your function.
Cloud Run functions applies updates to runtimes in accordance with your selected [security update
policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security#security_update_policy).

![Diagram outlining the stages in the lifecycle of a Cloud Run functions
runtime](https://docs.cloud.google.com/static/docs/buildpacks/images/runtime-lifecycle.svg)

Runtimes are available in different release stages, such as Preview or
General Availability (GA). For more information, see the
[product launch stages](https://cloud.google.com/products#product-launch-stages).

## Preview

If you deploy a workload using the Google Cloud CLI when a runtime is in Preview, use
the [`gcloud beta functions deploy`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/beta/functions/deploy.md.txt)
command.


## General Availability (GA)

During the [General Availability (GA)](https://cloud.google.com/products/#product-launch-stages) support window:

- Runtime components are regularly updated with security and bug fixes.
- Updates are applied in accordance with your workload's [security update
  policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security#security_update_policy).
- To maintain stability, Cloud Run functions avoids implementing breaking features or breaking changes into the runtime. Breaking changes will be announced in advance in Cloud Run functions [release notes](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/release-notes.md.txt).

When a language version is no longer actively maintained by the respective
community, Cloud Run functions will also stop providing maintenance and support for
that language runtime. Before a runtime reaches the deprecation phase as
described in the [runtimes support schedule](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/runtime-support.md.txt#support_schedule), Google will
provide a notification to customers in the Google Cloud console.

Google may make changes to any runtime's support schedule or lifecycle in
accordance with the terms of your agreement for the use of Google Cloud
services.

## Runtime lifecycle

|   | GA-level support | Deprecated | Decommissioned |
|---|---|---|---|
| Creation and redeployment | Yes | Yes | No |
| Running existing workloads | Yes | Yes | May be disabled |
| Language patches | [As per policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security.md.txt#security_update_policy) | [As per policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security.md.txt#security_update_policy) | No updates |
| Patching [system packages](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/reference/system-packages.md.txt) | [As per policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security.md.txt#security_update_policy) | [As per policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security.md.txt#security_update_policy) | No updates |
| Patching OS | [As per policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security.md.txt#security_update_policy) | [As per policy](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/securing/execution-environment-security.md.txt#security_update_policy) | No updates |
| Customer support | GA-level support | No runtime support | No runtime support |

## Notification Period

Cloud Run functions will begin issuing notifications 90 days before the runtime
reaches deprecation. Upon notification, you should prepare to upgrade your
function to a newer [supported runtime](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/runtime-support.md.txt#support_schedule).

## Deprecation and Decommissioning

When a component is no longer actively maintained, Cloud Run functions may
deprecate and eventually remove the runtime.

This has three aspects: a publication of the deprecation date, a deprecation
period, and a decommission date. In the following [schedule](https://docs.cloud.google.com/functions/docs/runtime-support.md.txt#support_schedule),
the deprecation date is the start of the deprecation period and ends at the beginning
of the decommission date. The decommission date indicates the start of the decommission period.

During the deprecation period, you can generally continue to create new
workloads and update existing workloads using the runtime. You should use this
time to migrate workloads that use the deprecated runtime to a more up-to-date
runtime.

After the decommission date, you can no longer create new workloads or update
existing workloads using the runtime. You must choose a more up-to-date runtime
to deploy your workloads. Workloads that continue to use a decommissioned
runtime may be disabled.

## Support Schedule

Here is the list of supported Cloud Run functions runtimes, as well as runtimes
that have been deprecated or decommissioned.

Based on qualification and stability of releases, availability and key dates
might be delayed. A blank deprecation or decommission date means that phase has
not yet been scheduled. Revisit this page to stay up to date.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** **Runtime ID** is often used when deploying from the from the command line or through Terraform
