Hello, i am currently running Mysql 5.7 on cpanel/whm v110.0.7. I host a couple of websites and i am not sure they ensure 100% compatibility with Mysql 8. given the fact that mysql reaches EOL in a couple of days, i was wondering on how long i will be able to use mysql 5.7 for my frontend sites since i can see no deprecation plan available from cpanel. Thank you in advance.

  Hey there! I'm not entirely sure what you mean when you ay "I see no deprecation plan available from cPanel" - can you get me more details on that? Are you just referring to the fact that it hasn't been added to this page yet? cPanel Deprecation Plan | cPanel & WHM Documentation You'll be able to use the software as long as you wish, but eventually your system will no longer be able to receive cPanel updates while you are running that older version. When that will happen hasn't been decided just yet.

  At this point it hasn't been decided, but you'll be fine updating to version 110!
