New process of installation and automatic updates for Tanzu Build Service

Products

• VMware Tanzu Build Service

Issue/Introduction

On January 26, 2026, Broadcom will be modifying the way Tanzu Build Service is installed as well as the way buildpacks and base images are automatically updated for users that are not entitled to Tanzu Application Platform. 

On this date, the following changes should be expected: 

• Tanzu Application Platform packages will no longer be used to install Tanzu Build Service.
• A new standalone installation process for Tanzu Build Service will be used.
• A new configuration for automated dependency updates will need to be configured.
• A migration to the new installation and configuration mechanisms will be required.
• Migration will first be required in order to perform any Tanzu Build Service upgrade.
• Tanzu Build Service will no longer include the dependencies by default. Dependencies can be added via a separate process for entitlements that provide access to dependencies.
• Customer Support Portal will no longer contain entries for Buildpacks and Base Images. Users should use the release notes in the documentation to track new version availability.

 

Resolution

Follow the migration guide for each build resource to begin using the new installation and dependency update process.
