    [$] Elevating CentOS 7 to a new life

    Description:
    CentOS Linux7 was first
    released in July2014, and is due to go end-of-life (EOL) on June30.
    By now, anyone who pays attention to such things is aware that Red Hat pulled the plug on
    CentOSLinux in late2020 to be replaced by CentOS Stream
    instead. CentOSLinux8
    support was wound
    down at the end of 2021 rather than in 2029 as originally stated.
    CentOS Linux7 was allowed to serve out its
    full lifespanbut that EOL is approaching rapidly and
    there's no direct upgrade path. Users and organizations looking for a
    lifeline might want to consider
    AlmaLinux's ELevate utility, which allows CentOS users to migrate to
    alternate enterprise
    Linux (EL) operating systems.
