Release Cadence

Starting in 2025, Cenosco is moving to a monthly release cycle, delivering new features, improvements, and bug fixes consistently. This approach maintains the same release frequency as in 2024 but eliminates the distinction between minor and major releases.

The release target dates are:

  • Jan: Week 4

  • Feb: Week 8*

  • Apr: Week 17

IMS Versioning Change

Starting in 2025, IMS adopted an industry-standard semantic versioning approach. This change aims to enhance compatibility with various services (IMS4Field, CMMS interfaces, SSO, etc.) and aligns with the new release cycle.

Why IMS 4.0.0? IMS has been in use for 10 years since its launch as version 3.0 in 2014. With the major revamp introduced in the recent 2024.3 release, it makes sense for the next version to be designated as 4.0.0.

Benefits

The benefits of the new versioning approach include:

  • Shifting focus to new functionalities and bug fixes rather than the version number itself.

  • Clear and structured versioning that highlights compatibility and breaking changes.

  • A systematic approach to versioning:

    • MAJOR version for incompatible API changes.

    • MINOR version for new, backward-compatible functionality.

    • PATCH version for backward-compatible bug fixes.
