Business Solutions End of Support (EOS) Policy

Business Solutions End of Support (EOS) Policy


This page defines ActiveViam’s policy for the support life-cycle of Business solutions. This policy came into effect on 1st November 2020.

In this document, version numbers are understood as: <major #>.<minor #>.<maintenance #> (for instance: “version 3.1.2” corresponds to “major” version 3, “minor” version 3.1, and “maintenance” version 3.1.2).

General Principles

  • A given x.y minor version is supported for 2 years following General Availability (GA), i.e. starting from the day x.y.0 is released.
  • The latest maintenance release for a given minor version is supported as long as that minor version is supported.
  • Any other (i.e. prior) maintenance release for a supported minor version is supported for 6 months after the next maintenance release is made available (e.g. 3.1.2 released on 14th Aug 2020 means that 3.1.1 is supported until 13th Feb 2021).
  • Support issues should only be raised against supported maintenance releases.
