This page provides information on supported software, the related release roadmaps and documentation, together with information about processes to validate and deploy new releases and to phase out unsupported software releases. The Technology Providers that currently signed a Service Level Agreement are the European Middleware Initiative (EMI) and the Initiative for Globus in Europe (IGE).
UMD Roadmap
The Unified Middleware Distribution (UMD) is the integrated set of software components that EGI makes available from technology providers within the EGI Community. These components are distributed to provide an integrated offering for deployment on the EGI production infrastructure.
Latest UMD Roadmap: D5.2
