Release branches
You choose between two branches: Monthly for new features at short intervals, Extended Support (ES) for stable operation with predictable updates. You can see the branch of your instance under Settings > System information at Release channel.
Each ES version is based on the Monthly version of the same month. You can therefore test new features in advance with the Monthly versions on a test system.
