Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

The planned existing-customer block was removed in July 2026; evaluate Managed Redis and the actual tenant eligibility and retirement timeline

Current guidance removed the planned block for qualifying existing Basic/Standard/Premium customers while retaining tier-specific retirement and new-customer/cloud rules. It did not delete every cache in October 2026, Enterprise and Basic have different dates, and eligibility restrictions are not universally absent. Source guide: PDF page(s) 53.
