## Source excerpt

Last week we officially launched Apollo Server 4! AS4 is lightweight and easier to use than any previous iteration of Apollo Server. We are sure that you'll love it, and we are excited to help you get started with it from scratch or migrate from a previous version. With Apollo Server 4 now generally available, Apollo Server versions 2 and 3 are now officially deprecated and will reach their final end of life on October 22, 2023.
