Support Duration for Fivetran Local Data Processing Releaseslink
- Major release versions of Fivetran Local Data Processing are supported for 3 years from their General Availability (GA) release date.
- A minor release (e.g. 6.1.2) or a patch release (e.g. 6.1.0/1 or 6.1.0/1.1) does not prolong the support duration. For example, if version 6.1 will expire at date X then that date will not be extended if version 6.1.2 is released a year later.
- Fivetran offers two years of "extended" support for the final version of a major release.
- Fivetran Local Data Processing is NOT compatible with HVR 5
The following table shows the release and support dates for the most recent major releases of Fivetran Local Data Processing:
| Release | GA Release Date | End of Regular Support | Support Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.1 | 2021-12-03 | 2026-01-31 | Regular |
| 6.2 | Planned Q1 2024 | - | - |
Version Compatibilitylink
- Fivetran Local Data Processing versions are 'network compatible' with the two previous major versions, but not with versions that have a different initial number. For example, Fivetran Local Data Processing 6.1 is network compatible with 6.2 and 6.3, but not with HVR 5.7.
- Fivetran Local Data Processing is not compatible with the HVR versions 5.x and 4.x. So, ensure that version 6.x is installed on the Hub machine and Agent machine.
- When using a mix of Fivetran Local Data Processing versions, note that each bug fix or feature is only effective if the correct installation/machine is upgraded. For example, if a new release fixes an integrate bug, then that release must be installed on the machine(s) that performs integrate. So if only the hub machine(s) is(are) upgraded, then there will be no benefit. To decide whether each installation needs to be upgraded, see the descriptions in the release notes (directory path HVR_HOME/hvr.rel). Each description ends with a line saying which machine(s) must be upgraded for that specific bug fix or feature to be effective.
Supported Operating System (OS) Releaseslink
- The release notes (directory path HVR_HOME/hvr.rel) lists the supported OS versions (such as "Solaris for SPARC, version 10 and higher") for each Fivetran Local Data Processing release.
- Once an OS version is supported by Fivetran Local Data Processing, support for that platform will continue until the OS supplier ends its "mainstream support". After that date the support for Fivetran Local Data Processing goes from "Regular" to "Sunset", which means that our support continues (including the new Fivetran Local Data Processing versions), but eventually it may be withdrawn without notice.
- A customer may request that Fivetran makes support for an OS version "Extended" instead of "Sunset", which means that our support will not be withdrawn as long as the customer continues to share information about the production status of that OS version for the customer, and Fivetran can reasonably continue to support the platform.
- A consequence of the end of Fivetran support is that we are no longer able to supply patches for that OS version.
- Fivetran Local Data Processing supports Linux based on a minimal glibc version of 2.12 which is not limited to the Enterprise products below. As long as the version of Linux is compatible with glibc it should work.
To see which OS versions are supported by Fivetran Local Data Processing, see Supported Platforms.

Supported DBMS Releaseslink
- The release notes (directory path HVR_HOME/hvr.rel) lists the supported DBMS versions (such as "Oracle: version 12.1, 12.2, 18c and 19c") for each Fivetran Local Data Processing release. The list of supported DBMS versions is different for Fivetran Local Data Processing on each OS platform.
- Subsequent major versions of the DBMS (such as "Oracle 20") are not automatically supported, but may be recertified by Fivetran after QA testing. But patches to a supported DBMS version are automatically supported by Fivetran Local Data Processing (no recertification is done at patch level).
- Once a DBMS version is supported by Fivetran Local Data Processing on a given OS platform, support for that DBMS version will continue at least until the DBMS supplier ends its "mainstream support". After that date Fivetran support goes from "Regular" to "Sunset", which means that our support continues (including new Fivetran Local Data Processing versions), but eventually it will be withdrawn without notice.
- A customer may request that Fivetran makes support for a DBMS version "Extended" instead of "Sunset", which means that our support will not be withdrawn as long as the customer continues to share information about the production status of that DBMS version for the customer, and Fivetran can reasonably continue to support the platform.
- A consequence of the end of Fivetran support is that we are no longer able to supply patches for that DBMS.
