Hi,
I want to test some PHP code on future versions of PHP / MySql / MariaDB.
I'm running CentOS 6.5 that installs php 5.3.3-27 which is at it's end of life.
It is my understanding RHEL 6.x will always be using PHP 5.3. Is that
correct? RHEL will be supported until Nov of 2020. That is a long time to be
running a PHP version that is at end of life. I understand RH will back port
any bug or security fixes to PHP 5.3 (which actually breaks the version
numbering system).
It is my understanding RHEL will be based on Fedora 19. I am downloading
Fedora 19 now. I assume testing on Fedora 19 will get me in the ball park for
RHEL 7. RHEL 7 will come with MariaDB as it's default DB. I assume I will
not see RHEL 7 in the form of CentOS 7 for year or two?
I assume there will be several more releases of RHEL 6 since it will be
supported for over 6 more years.
If I plan to stay with CentOS 6.x and if it will use the same MySql and PHP
versions until end of life and if RHEL/CentOS 7 will be based on Fedora 19, I
assume that is the only configurations I need to test on and I assume that will
take me through 6 to 10 years. Is this a fair expectation and a valid plan?
Any feed back and advice is much appreciated.
Thanks!!
Keith
