What's new and changed in IBM MQ 9.0.x Continuous Delivery

Following the initial release of IBM® MQ 9.0, new function and enhancements are made available by incremental updates within the same version and release as modification releases, for example IBM MQ 9.0.3.

Continuous Delivery releases (CD releases) deliver new functional enhancements, in addition to fixes and security updates, on a much shorter cadence, so providing much more rapid access to those new functions. This delivery model is intended for systems where applications want to exploit the very latest capabilities of IBM MQ.

The individual features provided by a CD release are stand-alone functions but may increase in capability in subsequent CD releases, enhancing earlier CD features and forming a suite of related capabilities.

It is also possible for newly created features in one CD release to be modified in later CD releases to improve the user experience. Where migration to the improved capability is required it will be documented.
