Quarterly Release Transitional Support Coverage

Effective: September 21, 2023

Updated: November 21, 2024

Current Policy

The Quarterly Release Transitional Support Coverage was replaced by the Liferay Service Life Policy.

In order to ensure a smooth transition to Quarterly Releases, Emergency Updates (hotfixes) will be made available on demand for Updates before Update 92 until August 31, 2025.

After August 31, 2025, Liferay DXP 7.4 Update 92 will be the only DXP Update to receive Emergency Updates and remain in the Premium Support phase in accordance with the Liferay Service Life Policy. All other Updates will not receive Emergency Updates, but will remain in the Premium Support phase.

 

Previous Policy

The previous Quarterly Release Transitional Support Coverage has been kept below for reference.

Liferay DXP 2023.Q3 is the first Quarterly Release where Liferay adopted a quarterly release cadence and a 365-day hotfix policy. Customers can receive product defect resolution in the form of Emergency Updates (also known as hotfixes) for any Quarterly Release issues within 365 days. This also means that product guidance and defect resolution for Updates will not be offered.

The first quarterly release was made available on October 20, 2023. Following this date, customers are asked to adjust their maintenance schedules by January 2024. Between September 21, 2023 and January 31, 2024 support will be offered for Quarterly Releases and Updates released prior to October 20, 2023. After January 31, 2024, Liferay will offer product guidance and defect resolution for Quarterly Releases only.

In order to ensure a smooth transition, between September 21, 2023 and January 31, 2024 Emergency Updates will be made available on demand for Updates released prior to October 20, 2023 and within 180 days, as determined by the date the incident was reported to Liferay.

* for Updates issued within 180 days or less
