This page lists the status, timeline and policy for currently supported ESO releases and its providers. Please also see our deprecation policy that describes API versioning, deprecation and API surface.

Supported Versions

We want to provide security patches and critical bug fixes in a timely manner to our users. To do so, we offer long-term support for our latest two (N, N-1) software releases. We aim for a 2-3 month minor release cycle, i.e. a given release is supported for about 4-6 months.

We want to cover the following cases:

  • regular image rebuilds to update OS dependencies
  • regular go dependency updates
  • backport bug fixes on demand
