Rocket Software will continue to support our mvBase customers

April 25, 2023

We love our mvBase customers and wanted to take this opportunity to provide you with some important details.

First and foremost, mvBase applications will continue to be supported

While we are moving mvBase through our Product Lifecycle to End of Limited Support in September, this simply means support is available but restricted. Also, you can still renew your maintenance contract. Rocket Software customers on maintenance are entitled to obtain product upgrades at no additional charge (if new versions are available). To learn more please see the Product Lifecycle Announcement that we updated and shared via email in Sept. 2022, 12-months before moving Rocket Software MultiValue products to new stages in the Product Lifecycle. Additionally, the Product Lifecycle Definitions and our Product Lifecycle Policy are available on the Rocket Business Connect.

Second, mvBase customers have options

While Rocket Software would love for our mvBase customers to migrate to another Rocket MV application server, we are not specifically advising mvBase customers move to any one MV application server over the others. We are proud to give our mvBase customers options, including:

• staying on mvBase
• moving to D3 (where a defined migration path exists)
• moving to jBASE
• moving to UniVerse

We want our mvBase customers to pick the Rocket Software MV application server that best fits their requirements. We know some of you are already exploring migrations to jBASE or D3.

Please know that if you need help, our Customer Solution Engineering (CSE) team offers both upgrade and migration assistance. We also have partners that offer migration services.
