.NET Support Policy
Connectors run under the .NET runtime. Each runtime version has its own end of life and because of that any built Connector support is tied to the .NET version's end of life date.
For reference on how long a version of .NET is supported you can visit Microsoft's policy page .NET and .NET Core Support Policy.
For example using the table in Microsoft's policy page any Connector built using .NET 8 will no longer be supported after November 10th 2026.
