IBM Db2 9.7 Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the IBM Db2 9.7 still supported?
IBM ended support for the IBM Db2 9.7 on Sep 30, 2017 — no more patches or fixes from the vendor. Third-party support keeps it covered: our engineers manage issues, remediate vulnerabilities, and help you maintain compliance for as long as you run it.
When is the IBM Db2 9.7 end of service life (EOSL) date?
IBM lists the end of service life for the IBM Db2 9.7 as Sep 30, 2017.
Can I keep using the IBM Db2 9.7 after its EOSL date?
Yes. EOSL means IBM 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 IBM Db2 9.7 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.
