Versioning in Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) - Generation 3

In OIC Generation 3, versioning follows a three-part format:

1. Major Version:

Indicates significant changes or new functionality that may introduce breaking changes.

Example: Moving from 01.x.x to 02.x.x.

Two major versions can be active simultaneously, allowing phased rollouts or parallel use.

 2. Minor Version:

Represents backward-compatible updates or new features.

Example: Moving from 01.00.x to 01.01.x.

Only one minor version can be active at a time within a major version.

3. Patch Version:

Used for small fixes or non-breaking changes.

Example: Moving from 01.00.0000 to 01.00.0001.

Only one patch version can be active at a time within a minor version.

Key Features

Multiple Active Versions: Two major versions can be active simultaneously, but only one minor or patch version is allowed per major version.

Draft and Active States: Draft versions are used for testing and updates, while active versions are used in production.

Version History: Previous versions are retained for rollback if needed.

Testing and Deployment: Draft versions are isolated for testing without affecting active versions.

This flexible versioning approach ensures seamless updates, backward compatibility, and controlled multi-version management.
