Keep EOL MySQL Secure and Supported Until You’re Ready to Migrate
MySQL 5.7 and MySQL 8.0 are no longer supported by the community, which means no new security fixes are coming and critical workloads are exposed.
Organizations running those versions may feel stuck between doing nothing — risking security breaches and fines/penalties for failing audits — or rushing a complex upgrade, increasing the operational burden on already constrained teams.
OpenLogic offers a third option: MySQL LTS. Now organizations have a compliant, vendor-neutral path forward with:
- MySQL 5.7 and 8.0 security updates and CVE remediation
- Support for multi-cloud, IaaS, on-prem, and hybrid deployments
- Extended migration runway and upgrade guidance
- SLA-backed, 24/7/365 technical support*
