# Elastic Cloud Enterprise deprecations
Over time, certain Elastic functionality becomes outdated and is replaced or removed. To help with the transition, Elastic deprecates functionality for a period before removal, giving you time to update your applications.
Review the deprecated functionality for Elastic Cloud Enterprise. While deprecations have no immediate impact, we strongly encourage you update your implementation after an upgrade.
In addition, before [upgrading your hosted deployments](https://www.elastic.co/docs/deploy-manage/upgrade/deployment-or-cluster/upgrade-on-ece), review [deprecation notices](https://www.elastic.co/docs/release-notes) for any Elastic Stack applications that you're using.
<note>
  There are no deprecation announcements at this time. You can find and review past announcements starting from [this page](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-enterprise/3.8/ece-release-notes-3.8.0.html).
