The announcement of a new platform release to derivative teams, product lines and customers: what the release offers, how it differs from earlier releases, how long it is supported and how to get it.
Guide or manual Work product in the Platform and derivative products lifecycle
A platform release only pays back when product teams start using it. The announcement tells them what is new, what is supported and how to start, so derivatives move onto the release rather than staying on an older one.
The full lifecycle detail, with its charts, flows, tables and every section, is for registered members. Registration is free and takes a minute. You come back to this page afterwards.
