Pega platform version backward compatibility
Hi,
My understanding is if we only upgrade Pega platform, the application may or may not work. The bigger the version gap is, the more the application breaks. Every time platform is upgraded, we will need to upgrade application (technically I mean override broken components) as well to work on a new version. Am I correct? Is there new plan for product (or Pega) to guarantee that old application would work on any future version?
Thanks,
Hi,
Each version of Pega will have some new rules which were not present in the previous versions. Also, there will be some functionalities/controls etc. which will be deprecated in those new versions. Thus, I don't think from Pega side we can guarantee that an old application would work on any future releases. There may be some other challenges which currently I am not aware of.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Rachit
