    How Software Product Life Cycle Patterns Can Help You

    You can use software product life cycle patterns to:

    • Identify software products that are exposed to security / stability risks as they are no longer supported by patch updates
    • Identify software products that you may be paying a premium maintenance subscription for
    • Identify software products that are no longer shipping so may increase costs and risks associated with variance
