The AI bot isn't paying attention to the Python part of the question?
Thanks for the question, @André Dienes Friedrich. The simple answer is no, there is no set expiration time. We like to keep deprecated features around as long as a good number of users are depending upon them in production. Some reasons why a feature would be removed are: keeping the deprecated library conflicts with important features of the replacement; it becomes too burdensome to support the deprecated one; or the deprecated one becomes a risk in terms of security or data integrity. That hasn't happened yet with the libraries you mention.







@Ronaldo Nascimento what kind of connection? DBAPI? Can you share a code sample?
