# Version Support and Lifecycle

Supported DecisionRules Docker and on-premise versions.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Support window: 6 months

DecisionRules supports each Docker and on-premises release for **6 months** after its release date.
{% endhint %}

Support includes bug fixes and security updates. Upgrade to a supported release before the support window ends.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Your Client and Server image versions **should always exactly match**. Version drift between the two can cause unexpected behavior.
{% endhint %}

### Lifecycle policy

The six-month period starts on the release date. A release becomes unsupported when it is older than six months.

We recommend upgrading to the latest available release. This gives you the newest fixes, security updates, and features.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Unsupported releases do not receive bug fixes or security updates. Support may require upgrading before investigation begins.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.decisionrules.io/doc/other-deployment-options/docker-and-on-premise/version-support-and-lifecycle.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
