Hej MongoDB-Team!

According to this Announcing end-of-support for AWS SDK for Go (v1) effective July 31, 2025 | AWS Developer Tools Blog, there will be no more releases for AWS SDK for Go v1 after July 2025. AWS as maintainer of this AWS SDK for Go package announced the EOL of the version 1 for July 31, 2025. After this date, there are no critical bug fixes and no security issues provided. Furthermore, the v1 SDK will not receive API updates for new or existing services, or be updated to support new regions.

Example for require-reference (there might be more):

github.com/mongodb/mongo-tools

go.mod

          module github.com/mongodb/mongo-tools
          
          go 1.22.0
          
          toolchain go1.22.11
          
          require (
          	github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go v1.53.11
          	github.com/craiggwilson/goke v0.0.0-20240206162536-b1c58122d943
          	github.com/deckarep/golang-set/v2 v2.6.0
          	github.com/google/go-cmp v0.6.0
          	github.com/jessevdk/go-flags v1.5.0
          	github.com/mitchellh/go-wordwrap v1.0.1
          	github.com/nsf/termbox-go v1.1.1
          	github.com/pkg/errors v0.9.1
          	github.com/smartystreets/goconvey v1.8.1
          	github.com/stretchr/testify v1.10.0
          	github.com/urfave/cli/v2 v2.27.2

MongoDB Tools should consider migrating to AWS SDK for Go v2 - aws-sdk-go-v2 so that we reduce the technical dept and converges to use a single version of this SDK. There is a migration guide available: https://aws.github.io/aws-sdk-go-v2/docs/migrating/

I’ve tried to follow Contributor’s Guide, but I’m not able to create a “MongoDB JIRA account” (Error: “Sorry, you can’t sign up to this Jira site at the moment as it’s private.”). Hence, I’m going to create a topic here

Cheers - Robert.

Now, I managed to Log-In into Jira and I’ve went ahead and created this ticket: https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/TOOLS-3783

I’ll keep this post open for now, to enable other users to find this exisiting topic/issue.
