| ## Release roadmap and standards | ||
| Our goal is to release regular updates which improve the driver and bring new features to users. Stable, production quality releases happen twice a year, targeting the first and third quarters of the calendar year. They are tested against a comprehensive matrix of supported operating systems, Java versions, and SQL Server versions. Stable releases are accompanied by additional localized packages, which are available on the Microsoft website. | ||

| Preview releases happen approximately monthly between stable releases. This gives users an opportunity to try out new features and provide feedback on them before they go into stable releases. Preview releases also include frequent bug fixes for customers to verify without having to wait for a stable release. Preview releases are only available in English. While they are tested, preview releases do not necessarily go through the same rigorous, full test matrix as stable releases. |
