Frequently asked questions
EOL signifies the predetermined date after which a product will cease to receive full support from its vendor/manufacturer. Recognizing EOL is essential because it indicates the phase where products might become outdated, potentially posing security and operational risks. It's a critical milestone in the lifecycle of IT products, impacting both strategic planning and operational efficiency.
EOS marks the designated date when all formal support for a product by its vendor or manufacturer concludes. It’s the final stage of a product’s lifecycle, and it can expose your organization to vulnerabilities, inefficiencies and potential compliance issues, underscoring the importance of proactive IT management. EOS is also sometimes referred to as end of service.
Security implications: Products past EOL/EOS are no longer updated, making them susceptible to potential threats, cyberattacks and vulnerabilities
Operational challenges: Relying on outdated products can lead to inefficiencies, compatibility issues and augmented operational costs
Regulatory compliance: Many industry standards and regulations mandate the use of supported and updated software, emphasizing the importance of tracking EOL and EOS dates
