Release Cadence & Versioning Policy - Gōsuto X & AXON Docs

Enterprise Release Governance

Enterprise organizations rely on predictable, transparent release cycles to plan deployment audits, security reviews, and employee training. Gōsuto X maintains strict versioning and release governance across the entire AXON ecosystem.

Semantic Versioning (SemVer) Standards

AXON adheres strictly to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH):

Version Component	Trigger Criteria	Enterprise Impact
MAJOR (vX.0.0)	Fundamental architectural shifts, breaking API updates, or new flagship applications	Advance notice provided; backward compatibility migration windows supported
MINOR (v1.X.0)	New enterprise capabilities, additional verified API channels, or performance enhancements	Zero downtime; immediate availability across all active workspaces
PATCH (v1.0.X)	Critical security patches, bug remediation, or UI styling refinements	Continuous automated delivery via GitOps and ArgoCD

Single Source of Truth (SSOT) Version Authority

Every microservice, frontend asset bundle, Docker image tag, and documentation page derives its authoritative version string strictly from the root VERSION file in source repositories.
