The website implies that SQL2014 will have extended security updates after its end of life date in July 2024, however it is not listed as a product that will have ESU.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/sql-server-2014 says SQL 2014 follows the fixed life policy

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/policies/fixed shows that ESU is available for products in the Fixed Life Policy

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/faq/extended-security-updates SQL 2014 is not listed.

Will SQL 2014 be added to the list?

    Hi @Rob Brown The links you provided are actually very detailed.

    As for your question, this should be for the Microsoft official to decide. This is just a technical forum, and we can not give you an exact answer.

    By the way, why not try upgrading to a newer version?

    Best regards,
