Summary
PostgreSQL 14 reaches end of life on November 12, 2026, according to the official PostgreSQL versioning policy. After that date it gets no more security or bug fixes from the PostgreSQL Global Development Group.
How PostgreSQL support works
Each major version is supported for five years after its initial release. Minor releases ship roughly every quarter, and you should always run the latest minor of your major version.
What happens after end of life
The community stops releasing fixes. Some cloud providers offer paid extended support, but that is outside the community schedule.
Upgrade options
Use pg_upgrade for an in-place upgrade or logical replication for a lower-downtime move to a supported major version. Test extensions and application queries on the new version first.
