Tomitribe Product Update and Support Policy
Tomitribe published lifecycle calendar provides product lifecycle and maintenance dates for Tomitribe’s commercially supported distributions of Apache Tomcat, Apache TomEE, and Apache ActiveMQ. Subscribers of Tomitribe’s commercial support may use these dates to plan deployment and production activities.
The product lifecycle depends on the product version and will not be supported after product End of Life (EOL) date. Updates will be delivered via software patches on as-needed basis or will be included in minor releases. Minor releases will include aggregate of prior patches and bug fixes.
Major releases will assume it’s own product lifecycle and maintenance schedule. Security notifications will be available online and notified according to Support Service Agreement.
The End of Life (EOL) dates on this page are exclusive to Tomitribe commercial support subscribers and are longer than the EOL dates communicated by the open source project.
Lifecycle Phases
Full Support
Technical support will be provided based on selected Support Subscription and Support Service Agreement. All available security patches, major and minor version upgrades with bug fixes and qualified new features will be available periodically and as needed.

Extended Support
This is an additional add-on subscription to support. The Extended Lifecycle support subscription includes mission-critical security fixes and select priority bug fixes. Routine releases will be made available for critical security patches independent of subscribers request.
