CentOS Stream 9 Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the CentOS Stream 9 still supported?
Yes. The CentOS Stream 9 is currently supported by CentOS, and third-party support is available as an alternative — issue management, vulnerability remediation, and compliance help independent of the vendor contract.
When is the CentOS Stream 9 end of service life (EOSL) date?
CentOS lists the end of service life for the CentOS Stream 9 as May 31, 2027.
Can I keep using the CentOS Stream 9 after its EOSL date?
Yes. EOSL means CentOS stops issuing patches and support — the software itself keeps running. Third-party support covers it from there: issue management, security vulnerability remediation, and the compliance documentation auditors ask for, for as long as you choose to run it.
How much does third-party support for the CentOS Stream 9 cost?
Typically 40-70% below the OEM maintenance renewal price. Exact pricing depends on quantity, service level and location — request a quote and we respond within 24 hours.
