Looking for new features? Here, you will find what's new in a fresh yuuvis® version, as well as the rare cases - Breaking Changes - that might require your action when updating.



yuuvis® Momentum Maintenance


yuuvis® Momentum is released in a release train strategy, with one release per quarter. The releases are labelled with a year and season, e.g., 2023 Spring, 2023 Summer, 2023 Autumn etc. In the regular maintenance package, a one-year long-term support (LTS) release is included.

Regular Maintenance

Every Winter release will always be treated as a regular LTS release and will be maintained for the duration of one year and one quarter, until the next Winter release is available, which then supersedes the previous LTS release. There are no further features added in an LTS version during the maintenance period. For example, 2022 Winter will be the regular LTS version, and will be supported for an additional quarter after 2023 Winter is released, which is until 2024 Spring. During this time, new features will be made available in releases 2023 Spring, 2023 Summer, 2023 Autumn and ultimately 2024 Winter which will then become the new regular LTS release. 

All releases between two Winter releases (Spring, Summer and Autumn) will supersede each other sequentially in the order of their release. For example, release 2023 Spring will be maintained until release 2023 Summer (three months). After 2023 Summer is released, 2023 Spring will not be maintained anymore, and all fixes will be available in the 2023 Summer version only.

Updates and Compatibility

Update is possible and guaranteed:

  • Between two successive regular LTS releases, for example 2022 Winter to 2023 Winter. We furthermore require that all hotfixes are applied to the previous regular LTS before the update.
  • Between all releases from the release train of the same year, for example 2023 Spring to 2023 Summer or 2023 Autumn. 

We make no further statements about version compatibility of different releases. We expect furthermore that releases are installed completely and do not allow mixing of components from different releases. The individual components within a release will respect and follow the semantic versioning, where major component version denotes API breaking changes.
