End of life cycle  

Release versions are officially supported over a span of 15 months upon the first release date to allow customers to upgrade in the good conditions once a year.
Active Release versions are supported through patches as per plan (see 2020 Calendar) and Emergency fixes when the conditions are met
After the end of life of a Release, normal support is still granted however should code changes be necessary, customers will be needed to upgrade to an officially supported Release to apply the identified code changes. 
SpinifexIT recommendations :
  • Plan at least a Release upgrade once a year to get the most of the new functionalities, features and performance enhancements
  • Upgrade to the Main release delivery or to one of the early patches following the main delivery

What happens if I have not upgraded and my product is out of support?
 
If the product you are using is out of the support period, this does not mean it will cease to work.  You will still be able to use the solution, however, if there are any issues encountered, we will no longer be providing Patches or Bug Fixes. The Customer Care team will also still provide answers and recommendations to tickets and questions raised
