Share the canonical public link.
Perforce Puppet detailed a shift to a simplified Latest / Latest-1 support model for Puppet Enterprise starting with the planned PE 2026.0 release in August 2026. The update replaces the prior STS/LTS model to accelerate innovation, strengthen security, and simplify lifecycle management with full active support for 12 months on the Latest track and limited active support on Latest-1. Current PE 2025.y holds Latest status through the PE 2026.0 launch, after which it transitions to Latest-1 until PE 2027.0; the final LTS release PE 2023.8.z maintains maintenance support until August 27, 2026, plus a six-month overlap ending February 27, 2027. Perforce Puppet's policy change applies to all new major releases from August 2026 onward.
