Yes. 3 Red Hat build of OpenJDK products in this list are already past their EOSL date and all remain supportable. We hold spares for every model we quote and cover equipment for 5+ years past the OEM date.
How far ahead should I plan for a Red Hat build of OpenJDK EOSL date?
Start 6 to 12 months before the EOSL date. That is enough time to compare the OEM's final renewal against third-party maintenance, decide whether to extend or refresh, and move coverage without a gap. We return an indicative price within 24 hours and a firm quote within 48.
