tl;dr CentOS 7 生命周期保持不变，CentOS 8 明年停止支持，重心转移到 CentOS Stream。并且提示，CentOS Stream 不适合 production environment。
Red Hat 躲过 GPL 方式就是收编 CentOS，然后把它变成 RHEL 的 upstream (Fedora > CentOS Stream > RHEL > Oracle Linux)。
The future of the CentOS Project is CentOS Stream, and over the next year we’ll be shifting focus from CentOS Linux, the rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), to CentOS Stream, which tracks just ahead of a current RHEL release. CentOS Linux 8, as a rebuild of RHEL 8, will end at the end of 2021. CentOS Stream continues after that date, serving as the upstream (development) branch of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Meanwhile, we understand many of you are deeply invested in CentOS Linux 7, and we’ll continue to produce that version through the remainder of the RHEL 7 life cycle.
CentOS Stream will also be the centerpiece of a major shift in collaboration among the CentOS Special Interest Groups (SIGs). This ensures SIGs are developing and testing against what becomes the next version of RHEL. This also provides SIGs a clear single goal, rather than having to build and test for two releases. It gives the CentOS contributor community a great deal of influence in the future of RHEL. And it removes confusion around what “CentOS” means in the Linux distribution ecosystem.
When CentOS Linux 8 (the rebuild of RHEL8) ends, your best option will be to migrate to CentOS Stream 8, which is a small delta from CentOS Linux 8, and has regular updates like traditional CentOS Linux releases. If you are using CentOS Linux 8 in a production environment, and are concerned that CentOS Stream will not meet your needs, we encourage you to contact Red Hat about options.
We have an FAQ to help with your information and planning needs, as you figure out how this shift of project focus might affect you.
UPDATE: 2020-12-15
我们熟知的 CentOS Linux 发行版可能死掉了，上周 Red Hat 出人意料的宣布其企业发行版的免费社区版本 CentOS Linux 将转变成一个滚动发行版 CentOS Stream，已发布的 CentOS 8 和 CentOS 7 将在明年和 2024 年终止支持。这一消息震惊了包括 CentOS 项目联合创始人在内的无数人。但基于 RHEL 的免费发行版并不只有 CentOS，你可以使用其他替代，其中包括甲骨文的 Oracle Linux；CloudLinux OS 项目维护者刚刚宣布将在明年一季度发布 CentOS 的免费替代；面向学术界的 Springdale Linux；CentOS 联合创始人 Greg Kurtzer 在听到这一震惊消息后宣布的新发行版 Rocky Linux，名字是为了纪念另一位联合创始人 Rocky McGough；惠普企业维护的发行版 ClearOS。
UPDATE: 2021-01-21
Redhat 自 2021年2月起 给个人开发者16台设备的 RHEL 许可。
We’re addressing this by expanding the terms of the Red Hat Developer program so that the Individual Developer subscription for RHEL can be used in production for up to 16 systems. That’s exactly what it sounds like: for small production use cases, this is no-cost, self-supported RHEL.
UPDATE: 2021-06-21
Rocky Linux 8.4 GA版本发布 https://rockylinux.org/de/news/rocky-linux-8-4-ga-release/
Sufficient testing has been performed such that we have confidence in its stability for production systems. Free community support is available through the Rocky Linux Mattermost, IRC, and forums. Paid commercial support is currently available through CIQ.
UPDATE: 2023-06-25
RHEL 的 Source Code 只有订阅才能获得 https://www.phoronix.com/news/Red-Hat-CentOS-Stream-Sources
此举可能影响 AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux 等一系列发行版。
"As the CentOS Stream community grows and the enterprise software world tackles new dynamics, we want to sharpen our focus on CentOS Stream as the backbone of enterprise Linux innovation. We are continuing our investment in and increasing our commitment to CentOS Stream. CentOS Stream will now be the sole repository for public RHEL-related source code releases. For Red Hat customers and partners, source code will remain available via the Red Hat Customer Portal.
To be clear, this change does not signify any changes to the CentOS Project, CentOS Stream or source availability for CentOS Stream or CentOS SIGs."
