## What breaks

The date is the one that endoflife.date lists under Premier Support for Oracle Database 26ai, for Oracle Database On-Premises Server Releases for Linux x86-64. endoflife.date notes that release dates may vary across cloud and on-premises offers and support stages, and reports two release types:

- Long-Term Releases (LTR) have Extended Support after Premier Support.
- Oracle may offer, for some LTR, one year of free Extended Support.
- Innovation Releases have no Extended Support.
- The endoflife.date table marks Long-Term Releases with LTR and shows the Extended Support status of each release.
