Data Protector version naming Sequential versus date based naming convention In 2018 a decision was made to align the external release version naming for Data Protector with all other ITOM products. This meant the naming would follow a year.month format (YYYY.MM) corresponding to the month of each release. Internally, the product still retains a sequential version number which is used by engineering and support External Release Engineering Release External Release Engineering Release 2020.08 10.80 2018.09 10.10 2020.05 10.70 2018.05 10.04 2019.12 10.60 10.03 10.03 2019.08 10.50 10.02 10.02 2019.05 10.40 10.01 10.01 2019.02 10.30 10.00 10.00 2018.11 10.20 9.09 9.09
