Red Hat Enterprise Linux versions 5 and 6 share a multiphase life cycle that can span 13 years, while versions 3 and 4 share a life cycle of 10 years. During the first five and a half years of the life cycle (“production 1”), there is full support and software and hardware drivers are updated. In later phases, support and updates are gradually reduced, with only critical and security-related bug fixes being provided to customers who pay for support in the last three years (“extended life cycle”).[16]
