Innovation State
Active
 New features are being
developed
 Fully supported
 Modern technologies
that support the
technical shift
Mature

any new features
 Fully supported
 Continue to serve a vital
role in the PI System
Deprecated
 Legacy technologies
 Superseded by a more powerful
and modern option
 Limited support and it’s
conceivable that future releases
will break a Deprecated
technology.

Fine print from our lawyers...
•
•
•
•
You may not redistribute our SDKs
You may not decompile or reverse-engineer
You need a licensed PI System to develop
• PI Developers Club membership is one way to get this
You still need a PSA license to deploy

Inspire the building of Apps:
• We need to get as many of you building apps as
possible!
