Goodbye CentOS Linux

Act now: Migrate operating systems!
Ensuring Stable Linux Deployment in the CAx Environment
CentOS provided stability for Linux operating systems to enterprises for many years. In the future, however, users will gradually no longer receive support and maintenance updates for the individual product versions. Companies that do not act in time will work with outdated products in the future and risk security gaps. Don't let these uncertainties arise in the first place and migrate your operating systems now.
End of Life
of CentOS 6 on November 30th, 2020
Updates
of CentOS 8 only until end of December 2021
Support
of CentOS 7 until June 30th, 2024
CentOS Migration: Your Perspectives and Alternatives
Companies using outdated CentOS Linux versions must make a decision:
Upgrade to CentOS Stream
- Open source Red Hat distribution
- Enjoy new operating system versions
before RHEL updates - Continuous maintenance promises small gaps
in the update supply
Switch to RHEL
- Modern, security-oriented operating system
- Uniform, stable platform for the integration
of all application architectures - Maintenance and support throughout
the entire lifecycle
Choice of other providers
- Attractive and secure alternatives to RHEL
- Commercial solutions from SUSE for example
- Access to extensive portfolio that goes beyond the Linux operating system
Changes to operating systems are not trivial - they present IT departments with major challenges. Major stumbling blocks are hidden in the planning and administrative activities: lack of compatibility with existing IT components and data often increases the effort required for testing and updating. The result: project delays and exploding costs. In the worst case, there is the threat of a complete failure of systems and applications with loss of revenue and image as well as considerable effort for the recovery of development environments.
