Today, Python is one of the programming languages, which has gained popularity due to its code readability and functionality. Its creator, Guido van Rossum, implied the idea of Python as an easily readable language. What is more, the philosophy of it lies in the simplicity and its applicability, especially when it comes to creating both simple and complex projects.
Python 2 was released in 2000, and the last version of Python 2, Python 2.7, is supposed to be officially maintained only till January 2020. Therefore, many companies now running Python 2 are concerned with its modernization or, to put it simply, are planning to migrate Python 2 to Python 3.
Time is running out, Python 2 is reaching its end of life, and, from the point of view of security, as the language won’t be maintained any longer, this leaves us with too little time to migrate from it. You also need to keep in mind that possible bugs found later on, or errors happening with your Python 2 application, can lead to extensive support hours in the future. If you wish your project to thrive for the next decade, we are here to make it live longer!
