Support for Centos 7 CentOS 7 Support Lifecycle Overview Whether you need to stay on CentOS 7 beyond community end of life, you need help choosing a solid migration path for your business, or you just need an extra hand managing your current CentOS 7 deployments, our Enterprise Linux experts can help.

RHEL 7 was released on June 10, 2014, so the June 2024 EOL date for CentOS 7 is the full 10 years that we expected. Red Hat continues to publish the date of Jas the end of Maintenance Support for RHEL 7, the upstream for CentOS 7. Or, at least, nothing has been announced that would indicate that there will be any impact. To answer the question at the beginning of the article, the short answer is, no, there's no immediate impact to CentOS 7 as a result of the December Red Hat announcement. In this blog, we discuss the impact of the CentOS 7 EOL announcement, look at the current options for organizations seeking support for CentOS 7, and discuss the long-term support outlook for those using this popular Enterprise Linux distribution. With the December 2020 announcement that Red Hat was going to discontinue CentOS 8 at the end of 2021 (a shocking 8 years ahead of the stated end of life), many folks are wondering if there is any impact to CentOS 7 support.
