Adobe Commerce ships three minor versions a year. Knowing which one you are on, what is current, and when support ends is the foundation of any upgrade plan.
Current release
- Adobe Commerce 2.4.9 — released 12 May 2026.
- 2.4.10 — not yet announced, it will likely fall into the current release schedule of late May 2027.
- Support for any 2.4.x release ends three years from its general availability date.
The 2.4.x line
- Initial 2.4.0 release: July 2020.
- Support for 2.4.0–2.4.3 ended on 28 November 2022.
- 2.4.4 was the first release compatible with PHP 8.1 — and is the practical floor for any new deployment.
The 2.3.x line (EOL)
- Final 2.3.x release: 2.3.7 on 11 May 2021.
- Initial 2.3.0 release: November 2018.
- Support for the entire 2.3 line ended on 8 September 2022.
Practical implications
- Don’t start a new project below 2.4.4 — you’ll be on EOL PHP within a year.
- Plan for an upgrade every 12–18 months at minimum.
- PaaS (Cloud) and on-prem code are identical, so you can migrate hosting without rewriting.
