Reference
Magento 2.4 system requirements and support dates.
Which PHP, MySQL, MariaDB, OpenSearch, Composer, Redis or Valkey, RabbitMQ and Varnish versions each Magento and Adobe Commerce 2.4 release supports, and how long each release gets security fixes.
What each release runs on.
The latest patch of each 2.4 release, on your own servers. Adobe supports only the combinations it lists, so an upgrade of Magento often means an upgrade of PHP and the database too.
| Release | PHP | Composer | MySQL | MariaDB | Search | Cache | RabbitMQ | Varnish |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.9 | 8.5 | 2.10 | 8.4 | 12.3 | OpenSearch 3 | Valkey 9 | 4.3 | 8 |
| 2.4.8-p5 | 8.4, 8.3 | 2.10 | 8.4 | 11.4, 11.8 | OpenSearch 3, Elasticsearch 8 | Valkey 8.1 | 4.3 | 8 |
| 2.4.7-p10 | 8.3, 8.2 | 2.10 | Not supported | 10.11, 11.8 | OpenSearch 2.19, 3; Elasticsearch 8 | Valkey 8.1 | 4.3 | 8 |
| 2.4.6-p15 | 8.2, 8.1 | 2.2.26+ | Not supported | 10.11 | OpenSearch 2.19, 3 | Valkey 8.1 | 4.3 | 8 |
| 2.4.5-p17 | 8.1 | 2.2.26+ | Not supported | 10.11 | OpenSearch 2.19 | Valkey 8.1 | 4.3 | 8 |
| 2.4.4-p18 | 8.1 | 2.2.26+ | Not supported | 10.6 | OpenSearch 2.19 | Redis 7.2 | 3.13, 3.9 | 7.7 |
MySQL 8.0 reached end of support on 30 April 2026, and 2.4.4 to 2.4.7 don't support newer MySQL versions, so their latest patches list MariaDB only. Adobe Commerce on Cloud uses its own versions.

How long each release is supported.
Adobe gives each Magento 2.4 release three years of standard support. After that, Adobe Commerce licence holders can get extended support and then a security-only period; Magento Open Source gets nothing more.
| Release | Released | Standard support ends | Adobe Commerce extended support ends | Security-only period ends |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.9 | 12 May 2026 | 31 May 2029 | To be confirmed | – |
| 2.4.8 | 8 Apr 2025 | 31 May 2028 | To be confirmed | – |
| 2.4.7 | 9 Apr 2024 | 31 May 2027 | 31 May 2028 | – |
| 2.4.6 | 14 Mar 2023 | 11 Aug 2026 | 31 Aug 2027 | 31 May 2028 |

| 2.4.4 | 12 Apr 2022 | 12 Apr 2025 | 14 Apr 2026 | 31 May 2027 |
Every release before 2.4.4, and all of Magento 1 (since 30 June 2020), is out of support.

What people ask us.
Which PHP version does Magento 2.4.8 need?
PHP 8.4 or 8.3 for the latest 2.4.8 patch. 2.4.9 needs PHP 8.5. The table above lists every release.
Can I run Magento 2.4.7 on MySQL 8.4?
No. Adobe lists MySQL 8.0 for 2.4.4 to 2.4.7, and MySQL 8.0 reached end of support on 30 April 2026, so the latest patches of those releases list MariaDB only. Moving to 2.4.8 or later lets you use MySQL 8.4.
Do I have to upgrade PHP when I upgrade Magento?
Usually, yes. Each release supports only a few PHP versions, and PHP versions have their own end of security support. Plan the Magento, PHP and database upgrades together.
Elasticsearch or OpenSearch?
OpenSearch, for the latest releases. Adobe has moved search to OpenSearch, and 2.4.9 lists OpenSearch only.
How often are these tables checked?
Every month, against Adobe's own pages. The date they were last checked is under each table.
