Reminder: Delivery Dates for Patches are tentative dates and subject to changes based on the Items in scope. SpinifexIT may unilaterally change, postpone or cancel patches considering requirements and context. This article will contain necessary updates on a frequent basis. We invite you to Follow this article to keep abreast of changes.

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 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 need 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

Below is the table of 1st Release date and End of life date for current and upcoming releases.

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.
