How to read the result
The policy defines Premier, Extended and Sustaining Support. Separately offered support programs require their own confirmation of availability and terms.
Premier Support
Full support: bug fixes, security updates and new operating-system and database certifications, with new features where a release carries them. For Fusion Middleware 12c (12.2.1.4) it ends December 2026.Extended Support
Paid Extended Support includes updates, fixes and security coverage subject to the applicable product and error-correction policies. Certification coverage differs from Premier Support. For applicable 12.2.x products, the published window ends December 2027; confirm your release and entitlement with Oracle.Sustaining Support
Runs after Extended Support, indefinitely. Access to the patches, fixes and documentation that already exist; no new patches, no new security updates, no new certifications.Market Driven Support
A yearly-renewable program Oracle has offered for selected releases beyond the Extended Support boundary. Availability, scope and terms are set by Oracle per release; confirm the current terms for 12.2.1.4 with Oracle.

Questions
When does Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c support end?
Premier Support for Fusion Middleware 12c (12.2.1.4) ends December 2026; Extended Support ends December 2027. The applicable 12.2.x family and product listings cover: WebCenter, SOA Suite, WebLogic Server, BPM Suite, ADF, Forms and Reports, Identity and Access Management and Data Integrator. After December 2027 the standard position is Sustaining Support, which adds no new patches or certifications.
Which Fusion Middleware 12c components have a 14c release?
WebCenter, SOA Suite, WebLogic Server, BPM Suite, ADF and Data Integrator have 14.1.2 releases. Oracle Forms 14c is 14.1.2 (February 2025) and Identity and Access Management 14c is 14.1.2.1 (March 2025). OBIEE and Endeca have no 14c release: OBIEE moves to Oracle Analytics Server or Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Endeca needs a replacement search platform.
From which 12c version can I upgrade to 14c?
Starting releases are component-specific. WebCenter Content 14.1.2 documents a 12.2.1.4.0 starting point; other products have their own supported paths. Confirm the upgrade guide and certification matrix for each installed component before choosing intermediate steps.
Where does Oracle publish the official support dates?
In the Oracle Lifetime Support Policy for Oracle Fusion Middleware, a PDF Oracle maintains at oracle.com, and on the Fusion Middleware end-of-support page at docs.oracle.com. Both are linked from this page. This table is a consolidated reference; Oracle’s documents are authoritative, and if they change, they govern.
