Notice

Here's the official report from Microsoft:

In August 2021, we announced Azure Cloud Services (classic) will be retiring on 31 August 2024. As App Service Environment version 1 and version 2 run on Azure Cloud Services (classic), we will retire App Service Environment version 1 and version 2 on the same date. Before that date, please migrate to App Service Environment version 3.

App Service Environment is an App Service feature that provides a fully isolated and dedicated environment for securely running App Service apps at high scale. App Service Environment version 3 is easier to use, runs on more powerful infrastructure that can go up to 8 cores and 32 GB RAM with faster scaling speeds for both Windows and Linux, and has much simpler network topology. Here’s a quick comparison between App Service Environment version 1/version 2 to version 3.

App Service Environment version 1 and version 2	App Service Environment version 3
Management of front-end scaling required	App Service Environment version 3 runs on newer and more performant Virtual Machine Scale Sets infrastructure
No access across global peering	Apps in internal VIP App Service Environment version 3 can be reached across global peering
Flat Stamp Fee for each App Service Environment	Price savings due to elimination of Stamp Fee and access to use reserved instance pricing

After 31 August 2024, App Service Environment version 1 and version 2 will no longer be supported and these App Service Environments and the applications running on them will be no longer available.
