Overview
Utilizing a Software as a Service (SaaS) release model allows Quavo to continuously deliver absorbable product solutions in a predictable release schedule. Each major QFD release will have a clear naming convention in a YY.MM format, indicating the latest version available for the year. For example, the QFD 24.01 version would be the first major version available in 2024. In addition to the major versions, Quavo will add patch releases which will include critical bug fixes. These patch releases will have a clear naming convention in a YY.MM.## format, indicating the number of patches created for the major release. For example, after the QFD 24.01 release is in production a patch release of QFD 24.01.01 would be the first patch release available for the major version of QFD 24.01.
Once a new QFD Patch Version is available, the package will be deployed to all client staging environments. For Beta clients, the package will be deployed into production the following week and all Non-Beta clients will receive the patch update into production according to the deployment schedule.
