Azure In-Role Cache Retirement

Microsoft announced that as of November 30,2016, "the Managed Cache Service will be shut down, and the In-Role Cache service will no longer be supported". My app uses an in-role cache for session storage and it still functional. The app is slated to go offline March 31, 2017. Does anyone know if the in-role cache in Azure will remain functional, even if not supported, for some period of time?
