As of the latest available information, AWS has not provided a specific timeline by which users must upgrade from MySQL 5.7. However, given the MySQL 5.7 EOL in October 2023, AWS might start to enforce upgrades sometime after this date.

Recommended Actions:

  • Check AWS Notifications: Regularly check your AWS RDS console and associated email notifications for any announcements related to mandatory upgrades.
  • Plan for Upgrade: Begin planning an upgrade strategy to a newer version of MySQL (e.g., MySQL 8.0) to ensure compatibility and to take advantage of improved features and performance enhancements.
  • Test New Versions: Before upgrading your production environment, set up a test environment to verify that your applications work as expected with the new database version.

It’s also a good practice to contact AWS Support for the most current and specific information regarding the upgrade policies affecting your particular instances. They can provide guidance tailored to your specific use case and configuration.
