Upgrade Guidelines
Customers should not fall further than 4 releases behind in their production code at any time. Not staying on current versions can result in the lack of resolution of bugs, errors, and other issues with Aspenware products.
Production environments will not be updated without first notifying and seeking consent from the customer. This raises the importance of customer contact availability - see the customer expectations section below.
Before scheduling a release to production, customers are expected to smoke test and approve the code version for their production environment. All functionality that is unique to the customer and not widely adopted should be tested by the customer with each upgrade. For example, if you use subscriptions, these should be specially tested with each upgrade.
We offer scheduled release timelines within business hours and do not offer routine releases outside of Business Hours or on Fridays.
Customers must request upgrades using the Aspenware Freshdesk Ticket Portal. All communication regarding the upgrade will flow through the ticket that is created through this portal. For See Aspenware Ticket Portal for more information on the Ticket portal, see https://hub.aspenware.net/main/the-aspenware-ticket-portal .
If you are integrating with Aspenware’s Headless Commerce APIs, your development team may be required to coordinate with during upgrades. This should only be true if there are breaking changes are introduced with a version. If there are no breaking changes, you should follow the same processes outlined here. Your Aspenware representative will provide guidance on whether an upgrade has a breaking change to the APIs.
