Openflow gen 1 deployment creation retired

DeprecationSep 9, 2026VerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026

You can no longer create new first generation (gen 1) Openflow deployments (BYOC or Snowflake). All new deployments are second generation (gen 2), created with CREATE OPENFLOW DEPLOYMENT or the Openflow UI. Existing gen 1 deployments continue to work unchanged, and you can still create new gen 1 runtimes on an existing gen 1 deployment.
