Versioning Model
IBM Cloud Pak for Integration follows a date-based versioning scheme. Thus 2019.3.2.2 breaks down as follows:

When the number to the right of the year and quarter changes, it simply represents an update package; the lifecycle is not reset by delivery of these updates. The update identifier, type, general availability date, and the availability of fixes is shown in the table.
