EdgeX Foundry announced the release of version 2.1 of EdgeX, codenamed ‘Jakarta.’ The project’s ninth release, it follows the recent Ireland release, which was the project’s second major release (version 2.0). Jakarta is significant in that it is EdgeX’s first release to offer long term support (LTS).
The EdgeX long term support policy states that the community will work as quickly as possible and give “best effort and development priority to fix major flaws as soon as possible.” Major flaws by the project are defined as:
- bugs causing the system or service to crash and where there is no work around for the function
- bugs for a feature/function that does not work and there is no work around for the function
- a security issue deemed a critical or high-level CVE (per CVSS)
The project has further stipulated in its LTS policy that “no new major functionality (at the discretion of the TSC) will be added” to the LTS version after the release happens.
