Support pattern
How Grafana has behaved across the cycles tracked here, rather than what its policy documents state. Useful for judging how much runway a version is likely to have before you commit to it.
Support windows have stayed consistent across the tracked history, so past cycles are a reasonable guide to what a new one will get.
Computed from release and end-of-life dates tracked for Grafana. Medians are used rather than averages so one unusually short or long release does not skew the figure. Cycles with no recorded end-of-life date are excluded from the support window.
How Grafana versioning, EOL & security support work
Grafana uses major.minor.patch versioning and ships regular minor releases within a major line before moving to the next major version. Each minor release gets a defined support window after it ships, and the final minor release of a major version is kept supported longer than the others. This applies the same way to self-managed Grafana OSS and self-managed Grafana Enterprise; Grafana Cloud, as a hosted service, sits outside this versioned window since it's kept continuously current.
Grafana Labs coordinates vulnerability fixes centrally, disclosing details through its own security advisories once patches are ready for supported versions. Running a Grafana instance past the end of its support window means it won't receive fixes for newly discovered vulnerabilities until you move to a still-supported release.
