This white paper discusses the end of life (EOL) of AngularJS, a framework for building JavaScript web applications. It outlines the implications for businesses using AngularJS, which reached EOL on December 31, 2021, after 11 years of support. The paper details the risks associated with using unsupported software, including unpatched vulnerabilities, incompatibility with web browsers, compliance issues, and increased complexity in upgrades and migrations. It also highlights the responsibilities of businesses that choose to self-support AngularJS, such as monitoring and fixing security vulnerabilities. The document presents four options for organizations facing AngularJS EOL: continuing to use AngularJS with associated risks, rewriting applications in the latest version of Angular, switching to another JavaScript framework, or partnering with a vendor for extended long-term support. The paper concludes with information about OpenLogic's extended support services for AngularJS, which offer security patches and support until 2030.
