End-of-sale and end-of-support dates for the physical hardware of firewall and network security appliances (not the OS or firmware version, the box itself), taken from each manufacturer's own hardware lifecycle page. Answers 'when does support end for [model] firewall hardware', the question a network admin planning a refresh needs answered, where the free software-lifecycle aggregators (e.g. endoflife.date) do not cover hardware end-of-support and each vendor's own lifecycle page uses a different format and a different name for the same two dates.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one; these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on the canonical site at its url.
Licence position
factual compilation from manufacturer lifecycle pages
Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
