If the hardware your device is using needs to be replaced in five years, do you have a replacement supply to support the version you're running?įor more information see Windows IoT Enterprise processor list API support When you utilize the LTSC, you must factor hardware into your decision, making sure you have a long-term supply of components for the expected life of your devices. Previous silicon generations may still in support by the Silicon Vendor (SV) or Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).
Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC will be supported for security, reliability, and compatibility on the latest silicon available at the time of release. It provides 10-years of security servicing to a static feature set. The LTSC is designed for devices and use cases where features and functionality will not change.

Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC releases follow the Fixed Lifecycle Policy. For more information, see Licensing and Usage contact an authorized Windows IoT Distributor for more guidance.
Windows IoT Enterprise is intended for fixed purpose devices with specific allowances and restrictions in the license agreement. Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC is available for Windows IoT Enterprise device makers through an authorized Windows IoT Distributor for building new devices. Upgrading from one version of Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC to the next version requires a new license. Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC releases receive 10 years of servicing and support. LTSC releases are named with a specific year, such as Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021. Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC releases approximately every three years, and each release contains all the new capabilities and support included in Windows feature updates that have been released since the previous LTSC release. We designed Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC with these use cases in mind, offering the promise that we'll support each Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC release for 10 years, and that features and functionality will not change over the course of that 10-year lifecycle. Devices that require regulatory certification and devices that perform a critical business function can't accept feature updates for years at a time. These devices are typically found in industries including, but not limited to, banking, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing and retail. Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC is designed for specialty devices and use cases where functionality and features remain constant for the life of the device.
