2. MIGRATION PLAN
In an effort to stream-line the entire Profiler and Gateway VE Edition while also eliminating room for confusion, we have decided to retire the 1060 SKUs and replace with the new 100 Edition SKUs.
Customers who have purchased the 1060 Virtual Profiler and Gateway can continue to use it and maintenance will continue to be available as outlined in the table above. To preserve our customer’s investment; upgrades, feature options and add-ons are not subject to this end-of-availability notice.
Customers looking for a Virtual version of the Profiler and Gateway should consider the Cascade Virtual Profiler and Gateway 100 Edition which provides all of the functionality of the 1060 Edition with the addition of bundled analytics as well as higher flow capacity tiers.
