Dear Support,
We are using Tomcat 7 with Windows Server 2012 R2 at our servers and planned to
upgrade tomcat and windows platform.
Can you update us the windows support platform for Tomcat 7 and Tomcat 9 for
our ease planning.
Apache Tomcat 7 reached end of life 18 months ago and is no longer
supported:
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-70-eol.html
Apache Tomcat 9.0.x is currently supported and, based on support periods
for previous versions, I'd expect that support to last for a further 4-5
years. The end of life date, when decided, will be announced with at
least 12 months notice.
Apache Tomcat 9 is a special case since it is the last version that
implements Java EE (Tomcat 10 onwards implement Jakarta EE). The Tomcat
community expects to provide support for Tomcat 9 for as long as there
is a demand for a version of Tomcat that supports Java EE.
The exact detail of how extended Tomcat 9 support will work is TBD but
it will be something like once Tomcat 9.0.x reaches end of life, Tomcat
9.10.x will be released which will be Tomcat 10 but with Java EE
support. Once Tomcat 10 reaches end of life, so will 9.10.x and 9.11.x
will be released which will be Tomcat 11 but with Java EE support and so on.
Apache Tomcat is supported on any Windows platform currently supported
by Microsoft.
