Release Schedule¶

Overview¶

This page provides a general release schedule for Harmony, Vinyl, and Data Loader components. The release schedule may be adjusted due to special circumstances such as holidays.

Updates for known critical defects will be applied as necessary. Though advance notice will be given if possible, there may be circumstances where a fix is of such urgency that advance notice is not possible. In all cases, notices will be posted on Jitterbit's system status site. You can update your notification preferences at https://trust.jitterbit.com.
