MySQL 8.0 Has Reached EOL. Your Coverage Doesn’t Have To End.
MySQL 8.0 Premier Support ended on April 30, 2026. Oracle no longer releases security patches, leaving your systems exposed to unpatched CVEs, compliance gaps, and the kind of incidents that force emergency decisions.
TuxCare picks up where Oracle leaves off — delivering continuous security patches and CVE coverage for MySQL 8.0, so your systems stay protected and compliant without the cost, complexity, or risk of a forced upgrade.

Get your MySQL 8.0 security plan in place
TuxCare keeps you ahead of threats by proactively tracking and patching new CVEs impacting MySQL 8.0
MySQL’s LTS releases include 5 years of Premier Support and 3 years of Extended Support, with a new LTS version released about every two years.
The MySQL 8.0 LTS line reached end-of-life (EOL) on April 30, 2026. Oracle no longer provides security updates, so without TuxCare ELS you would need to upgrade to a newer LTS release.
Keep Running. Skip the Risks.
Upgrading a legacy MySQL deployment can be time-consuming and risky, often requiring compatibility checks, client/connector updates, configuration changes, and extensive testing.
TuxCare’s ELS keeps your EOL MySQL environments secure, compliant, and stable without the risk of costly upgrades.
