Long Term Service Releases and Current Releases
Since January 2017, Unicon has been offering a Long Term Service Release (LTSR) of eLux RP and the management software Scout Enterprise Management Suite for download on our myelux.com portal.
By extending the life and support cycle of our software, Long Term Service Releases enable enterprises to retain a particular release for an extended period of time during which Unicon periodically publishes Cumulative Updates (CU). Cumulative Updates only include fixes for the LTSR components and features that help simplify the on-going maintenance. Opting for LTSR, customers obtain high-quality versions and can reduce update management efforts while they are sure to be provided with security fixes if necessary.
In parallel, Unicon carries on providing so called Current Releases (CR) for eLux RP and the Scout Enterprise Management Suite on a quarterly basis. They are ideal for dynamic environments where the latest features and the most innovative technology are required.
For LTSR and CR product versions, consecutive version numbers are used. This means that a particular product version is either related to LTSR or to CR. Product versions will be labeled clearly to help customers distinguish LTSR from CR.
LTSR is included in the Scout Management license which must only be acquired once. Additional cost or new licensing is not required. Customers can choose between LTSR or Current Releases but they are also free to use both of them in a mixed environment with LTSR and CR versions for Scout Management Suite and/or eLux RP. Changing from CR to LTSR and vice-verse is possible at any time. LTSR and CR versions are generally compatible unless explicitly stated otherwise in the release notes of the relevant product version.
Benefits of Long Term Service Releases
- Extended life and support cycle
- Simplified on-going maintenance and greater predictability
- Optimized management efforts through extended periods of time between product upgrades result in lower Total Cost of Ownership
- Additional fixes and security patches in Cumulative Updates
Differences between Current Releases and Long Term Service Releases
- Latest functionality and support of latest hardware platforms in CR
- Release cycle on a quarterly basis for CR
- New technology and fixes are combined in CR – Fixes are available with next CR
LTSR and CR are subject to different cycles. For further information, see Release cycles.
