Dear MuleArchs,
On October 3, Mule is launching a new Mule Runtime 4.5.0 release model.
Key Features below
Predictable Release Cadence
New releases will occur three times a year
(Winter, Spring, Summer). This aligns with the Salesforce release cycle
Benefit : to plan and manage upgrades more efficiently across SF and Mule platforms.
LTS Releases :
LTS releases include prior Edge release features, new features, and are rolled out once a year with 12 months of standard and 12 months of extended support.
Tailored Release Channels
Choose between two release channels:
Edge and LTS.
Edge Releases :
Edge releases offer the latest features and are released three times a year
Comes with 4 months of standard and 4 months of extended support.
Simplified Versioning Schema
Hybrid standalone versions will follow Semantic Versioning (Major.Minor.Patch). CloudHub 1.0, CloudHub 2.0, and RTF versions will be Major.Minor.Patch:Build (āeā for Edge, no character for LTS).
Automatic Minor Upgrades
CloudHub 1.0 and CloudHub 2.0 apps will automatically upgrade to the latest Mule Runtime version when standard support ends, ensuring you are always up-to-date.
Note: RTF (Runtime Fabric) and Hybrid On-Prem apps will not be subject to this automatic upgrade across minor releases
