Definition of End of Mainstream Maintenance

SAP provides mainstream maintenance with global availability when a product or product version exits SAP Early Adopter Care Program. End of
mainstream maintenance refers to the point in time as of when SAP no longer provides new corrections for a given product or component version,
i.e. technology updates, legal changes or patches. After this point in time, new corrections will only be provided in releases which are under mainstream
maintenance then. However, SAP will continue to support customers or partners on maintenance who choose to stay on a product or component version
which has reached its end of mainstream maintenance, for example with problem resolution for known bugs (i.e. only already existing solutions). For
further information, refer to the SAP Release and Maintenance Strategy.
