CentOS Linux 7 was first
released in July 2014, and is due to go end-of-life (EOL) on June 30.
By now, anyone who pays attention to such things is aware that Red Hat pulled the plug on
CentOS Linux in late 2020 to be replaced by CentOS Stream
instead. CentOS Linux 8
support was wound
down at the end of 2021 rather than in 2029 as originally stated.
CentOS Linux 7 was allowed to serve out its
full lifespan—but that EOL is approaching rapidly and
there’s no direct upgrade path. Users and organizations looking for a lifeline might want to consider
AlmaLinux’s ELevate
utility, which allows CentOS users to migrate to alternate enterprise
Linux (EL) operating systems.
