This post was updated on 30 August 2024 to clarify support arrangements for Mbed OS

Today we wanted to share some important updates with the Mbed community:

• The Mbed platform and OS will reach end of life in July 2026, when the Mbed website will be archived and it will no longer be possible to build projects in our online tools
• The device software - Mbed OS - is open source and will remain publicly available, but is no longer actively maintained or supported by Arm
• The Mbed TLS project is unaffected by this announcement and continues to be supported as part of the TrustedFirmware community project.

UPDATE (26 September): Maintenance is now complete. No further disruption is expected.

Earlier this year, Arm announced the open beta of Keil Studio Cloud, our new browser-based IDE. It’s free to use, comes with a powerful, modern editor and as the name suggests, supports the wider Arm CMSIS microcontroller ecosystem, as well as Mbed OS.

Keil Studio Cloud builds on technology that we have developed for Mbed Studio and the Mbed Online Compiler, with the aim to provide an easy-to-use rapid prototyping environment that can be used for IoT, ML and general embedded development.

You can access Keil Studio Cloud at studio.keil.arm.com using your Mbed account. Documentation for Keil Studio Cloud is available on Arm’s developer website.

Keil Studio Cloud is the natural successor to the Online Compiler, which we will be phasing out. Read on for details on timeline, migration steps and further information on hardware support.

We released version 6.10 of Mbed OS this week and as part of the release we are pleased to introduce a new standard for the definition and usage of pin-names for Mbed Enabled boards.

Following feedback from the developer community and our ecosystem partners, we wanted to make it easier for developers to reuse or create applications that port across Mbed boards to external components. By working with the Analog Devices and ST Microelectronics engineering teams, we’ve designed, implemented and deployed new standard pin names and connectors, improving your experience with Mbed.

Two years ago, Arduino adopted Mbed OS as their primary IoT OS. This enablement provided Arduino users with a larger standard library of high quality components including an RTOS, networking stacks and automatic power management. And for Mbed users, it brought the Arduino core as a library to Mbed OS giving developers the potential to access a huge set of Arduino peripheral drivers through a standard interface. By using Arduino platforms such as the Portenta and the Nano BLE 33, developers can benefit from the flexibility and reliability of Mbed OS coupled with the low-code approach typical to Arduino.

By Peter Ferguson, Director Healthcare Technologies at Arm

For healthcare companies to keep up with the pace of patient needs and deliver innovative products while outperforming the highest regulatory challenges, they need the product development process to be as quick and easy as possible. At the same time, medical devices are becoming more complex, with many now having integrated wireless connectivity, enabling onward delivery of the medical data as well as facilitating software and configuration updates that support products to be securely deployed for many years.
