- Purchase an Extended Security Update subscription for your servers and remain protected until you are ready to upgrade to a newer SQL Server version, for up to three years after the End of Support date.

**IMPORTANT:** as stated in the [ESU FAQ page](https://aka.ms/sqleosfaq), ESUs will be distributed **if and when available**. There is no regular release cadence of SQL Server ESUs.

When an ESU is released, Microsoft recommends applying ESU patches as soon as they are available to keep a SQL Server instance protected. For other clarifications and frequently asked questions, refer to the the [ESU FAQ page](https://aka.ms/sqleosfaq).
