Important information for backward compatibility

Soffico attaches great importance to backward compatibility in the development of Orchestra. To ensure this, the Orchestra Customer API is available. This API encapsulates the access to internal functions and thus ensures backwards compatibility when using direct Java API calls.

If users - for whatever reason - have implemented direct access to internal functions in their own Java classes, mappings, channels, Java activities, etc., this function is naturally bypassed. Therefore, the backward compatibility for scenarios enabled by the Orchestra Customer API may no longer work when using older or newer Orchestra variants.

Such a case is neither a malfunction nor a defect. Therefore, ensure through appropriate quality measures that the correct functioning is guaranteed in the case of a version upgrade. This includes a test environment in which the functionality of Orchestra and the installed scenarios can be tested during a version upgrade.

If you need specific functionalities that are not yet available in the Customer API, please feel free to contact us.
