Primary-source evidence
Official changelogs, product documentation, lifecycle notices, release notes and publisher announcements control the record. Search snippets, trade coverage and AI summaries are discovery aids only.
Evidence before editorial certainty
Research method and publication controls
SchemaTrace tracks product-level technical lifecycle events. It does not infer customer adoption, production impact or completed migration without direct evidence.
Dates stay separate
Announcement, source-update, availability, migration, deadline, brownout, enforcement and retirement dates are not interchangeable. The site states which date each claim represents.
Facts, analysis and unknowns
Publisher facts, SchemaTrace analysis and unresolved fields are presented separately. Missing retirement dates, price tables, affected versions or entitlement boundaries are never invented.
Append-only lifecycle history
Material extensions, deadline changes, reversals and enforcement updates create dated events in the same event family. Earlier states are preserved rather than silently rewritten.
Five-lane research
Each lane runs as research intake, followed by a central source reopening, duplicate check and publication decision. A quiet day is valid. A weak record is not.

Contextual network rule
Cross-domain links appear only where a record has a curated entity, platform, control, sector or procurement relationship. The destination keeps its own source ledger and evidence boundary; generic sister-site footer links are not used.
