CentOS 6 End Of Life In November 2020!

HomepageNews from UsCentOS 6 End Of Life In November 2020!

Dear Valued Clients

At some point, every Linux release becomes EOL, that is, it reaches its end of life. Although CentOS releases have exceptionally long life cycles, version 6 reaches its own by the end of November 2020.

In comparison, CentOS 7 will be supported until June 2024 and CentOS 8 until May 2029.

 

Becoming EOL means it will no longer be supported by the Linux community with security patches, vulnerabilities, or bug fixes. Therefore, continuing to use CentOS 6 after November could pose a significant security risk.

 

That is why it is advisable never to use EOL operating systems. If you are using CentOS 6 on any of your machines, you have a couple of options available going forward.
