Microsoft .NET dependencies on SAP Business Objects 4.3

[Girinaath_Dayal]

Hello Experts,

Hope you are doing well!

We see the SAP BO 4.3 server uses the below Microsoft .NET applications, and the Microsoft .NET Framework is see as one of the pre-requisites while performing the BO Install/Upgrade.

• Microsoft .NET 6.0.36 - Windows Server Hosting
• Microsoft .NET Runtime - 6.0.36 (x64)
• Microsoft .NET Runtime - 6.0.36 (x86)
• Microsoft ASP .NET Core 6.0.36 - Shared Framework (x64)
• Microsoft ASP .NET Core 6.0.36 - Shared Framework (x86)

My current BO version is BI 4.3 SP04 Patch 900, but I see that the .NET 6.0.36 already reached it's EOL on Nov 2024, but still used in the server. May I know what is the exact dependency of these applications on SAP BO. If they have minor dependencies, can they be removed or upgraded?

Please suggest?
