Upgrading FAQ

How can I tell what versions are available?
  1. We send notification emails when a new stable release is shipped.
  2. All releases (stable and pre-release since 1.3.2) are available as:
    • Container images
    • Zip files for Windows (IIS)
    • Zip files for Linux

You can always view available versions at: https://releases.synapsesoftware.com/

Why don't you provide a latest tag?

We do not provide a latest tag for two reasons:

  1. In production environments, referencing a specific version prevents unintended upgrades and breaking changes.
  2. Cortex versions can introduce significant changes. Requiring an explicit version ensures upgrades are intentional and planned.

In the future, we may introduce release channels such as:

  • insider
  • stable
  • oldstable

If implemented, latest would likely point to stable.
