Is there a DVLS product release lifecycle that contains General Availability, End of Maintenance, and End of Support information?
Thank you.

Hello,
Here is a better explanation of our DVLS lifecycle process.
We have 2 models for DVLS versions: the latest and the stable. Currently, we have versions 2024.1.11 as the latest and 2023.3.16 as the stable.
The latest version contains all the latest additions, improvements, and fixes. This also includes security patches.
The stable version is the latest minor version of our previous release. Only security patches are added to the stable version.
For instance, when we deploy a new major version (i.e., 2024.2.x), the latest version then becomes the stable version (i.e., 2024.1.x), and no security patches are applied to previous stable versions (i.e., 2023.3.x or lower). This cycle is repeated for each new major release.
Let us know if you have any more questions about this.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us on that matter!
As far as I know, we do not have any official documentation about the DVLS release lifecycle.
But we do publish a list of security fixes. Depending on your tolerance towards those security fixes, we recommend updating to the most recent version to mitigate the security issues.
