Deprecated features
If you are migrating from an earlier release of IBM® SPSS® Collaboration and Deployment Services, you should be aware of the various features that have been deprecated since the last version.
If a feature is deprecated, IBM Corp. might remove this capability in a subsequent release of the product. Future investment will be focussed on the strategic function listed under recommended migration action. Typically, a feature is not deprecated unless an equivalent alternative is provided.
The following tables indicate what is deprecated. Where possible, the table also indicates the recommended migration action.
