Operating System and Database Support Roadmap
Release Process
Avionté continuously improves its products. These improvements are installed to existing application structure; each release is a set of improvements to the previous release. The release notes are organized in a separated manner per release and are not aggregated into one page.
For example, in the event a customer's application is upgraded from v15.2.7 to v17.1, changes between those releases will be available through multiple sets of release notes (from 15.2.7 up to and including 18.1 notes.)
Navigate to Support Center > General > Release Notes to view Avionté's available release notes.
Release Versioning
Changes are rolled forward so the patch number will reset to zero for each subsequent release (i.e. 15.2.0.2 read as major release 15.2, patch 2, 15.2.1.0 read as minor release 15.2.1).
Deprecation
Generally, "deprecation" refers to something that is acknowledged but discouraged. A software deprecation is the removal process, or discouragement of use, of an application feature. An application feature may be deprecated because it has been replaced, doesn't work as expected, or its support requirements outweigh its benefit or use.
Avionté release notes provide a list of items scheduled for removal as well as a list of items recently removed.
Web Portals |
In upcoming releases, web portal functionality will gradually be replaced with functionality provided by the Aero platform. |
Job Board |
In an upcoming release, the currently used job board will be replaced with the new functionality available in the Aero platform. |
Config Option OverrideTxnGeoCodeBy |
The config option OverrideTxnGeoCodeBy has been removed. Due to advances in GeoCode settings in the application, the config option is no longer necessary. Unless a client has a customization dependent on this config option, there will be no effect on applications and there is no client action needed. |
SQL Server 2008 R2 |
The full-featured edition of Microsoft's SQL Server was removed in the 17.2 release. All of its features are available in the SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition. |
PeopleClues |
PeopleClues, a provider of employee assessment tests, has been acquired by Snagajob and, as of February 1, 2017, was no longer accepting new customer Agreements or renewals for the integrated PeopleClues product. As of July 31, 2017, Snagajob no longer provided code updates, patches, maintenance packs, enhancements, or consulting services for the PeopleClues integrated platform. December 31, 2017 was the End-of-Life date for the integrated PeopleClues product. Accordingly, effective December 31, 2017, Snagajob terminated all service, support, and maintenance for the PeopleClues integrated product. |
Operating System & Database Support Roadmap
The table below provides Avionté server and operating system availability according to the provider's published availability dates.
A yellow cell indicates the product will soon be unsupported. A red cell indicates the product is no longer supported beginning with that release. A green cell indicates the product will be supported beginning with that release. To illustrate, the SQL Server 2008 R2 product will no longer be supported with the Avionté 17.2 release; Windows Server 2016 will become supported with the release of Avionté 17.2.
