Red Hat offers endless Linux support — for a fee

Understanding that enterprise migrations can be structurally complicated, costly, and constrained in certain environments, many software and cloud providers offer extended maintenance, support, and security updates. Oftentimes, though, they come with caveats and firm end dates. Red Hat is looking to shake up this paradigm with its announcement at Red Hat Summit of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Long-Life Add-On, an optional support extension with no pre-determined end date.
