# DRAGEN Product Obsolescence Notices

## DRAGEN Secondary Analysis - End of Life Roadmap

This section refers to DRAGEN Secondary Analysis package versions for use on-prem and BYOL

| Version           | Date of Obsolescence |
| ----------------- | -------------------- |
| v3.3 and lower    | June 1, 2025         |
| v3.9 and lower\*  | December 1, 2025     |
| v3.10 and lower\* | June 1, 2026         |

\*v3.7.8 and v3.9.5 will continue to be supported by Illumina indefinitely

After the dates of obsolescence, there will be no further updates, improvements, bug fixes, or support for the affected versions. Customers will no longer have access to download installers, release notes, and user guides after date of obsolescence.

## DRAGEN BSSH/ICA Workflows - End of Life Roadmap

**The DRAGEN Support Team strongly recommends transitioning to F2 enabled workflows by November 20, 2025 to ensure a smooth transition and minimize analysis delays as F1 instances are taken offline.**

Amazon Web Services’ announcement in 2024 that their F1 instances will be replaced by a new generation of FPGA-powered cloud hardware, Amazon EC2 F2 instances, throughout 2025. F1 instances will be phased out of service and made obsolete by December 20, 2025.

DRAGEN pipelines on ICA and BSSH make use of these F instances to run FPGA-accelerated DRAGEN analysis workflows in the cloud. To ensure uninterrupted service, Illumina is releasing updated versions of DRAGEN pipelines compatible with F2 instances within the same time frame. This change impacts all DRAGEN pipelines before v4.4.4. In addition to having ongoing AWS support, F2 instances introduce capacity and performance improvements with up to 40% reduced turnaround time for analysis (runtime and queue times).

F2-compatible DRAGEN versions of BSSH and ICA apps are being made available for a subset of current versions (see tables below). Upgrade pathways described in Tables 1 and 2 will produce read, variant, and metric exact results on F2 instances.

The transition from F1 to F2 will be accompanied by pricing changes for BSSH and ICA. DRAGEN pipelines running on F2 will incur the following DRAGEN License cost per gigabase of data processed in addition to an hourly [F-instance computer cost](https://help.ica.illumina.com/reference/r-pricing).

| Gigabases per sample | iCredits per gigabase |
| -------------------- | --------------------- |
| <=80                 | 0.10                  |
| >80 and <=160        | 0.08                  |
| >160 and <=240       | 0.07                  |
| >240 and <=320       | 0.06                  |
| >320                 | 0.05                  |

Note: If your DRAGEN job fails, no DRAGEN license cost will be charged.

Recommended transition paths for all other versions are summarized in tables 3 and 4 below. Applications using these transition paths are not receiving bit exact equivalent apps, and Illumina recommends upgrading to a more recent version of the release workflow when available. Because these upgrades use different underlying DRAGEN versions, the results will not have bit exact outputs.
