Versioning#

Release support#

Level	Policy
General Availability (GA)	Receives new features, bug fixes, and security fixes. Fixes are backported to the three most recent minor releases.
Maintenance	Does not receive new features. Receives only those bug fixes and security fixes considered “critical”. Fixes are backported to the most recent minor release.
End-of-Life (EOL)	No support.

The non-negative integer components of the version format (v<MAJOR>.<MINOR>.<PATCH>) are incremented by the criteria:

MAJOR

Incompatible changes to the public interface

Removing support for a runtime.

MINOR

Backwards compatible changes to the public interface

Any backwards compatible or incompatible changes to the internal interface

Adding support for a runtime

PATCH

Bug fixes that are backwards compatible

Security fixes that are backwards compatible

For semantic versioning purposes, the public API is defined as follows.

The definition of the public interface:

Any module, function, class or attribute that is not internal

The definition of the internal interface:

The ddtrace.internal module is internal

The ddtrace.vendor module is internal

Any module, function, class or attribute that is prefixed with a single underscore is internal

Any module, function, class or attribute that is contained within an internal module is internal

Internal code may be subject to breaking changes in bug fix and minor releases.
