The Docker API version is independent of the Docker platform version. We maintain
careful API backward compatibility and deprecate APIs and features slowly and
conservatively. We remove features after deprecating them for a period of
three stable releases. Docker 1.13 introduced improved interoperability
between clients and servers using different API versions, including dynamic
feature negotiation.

## Upgrades and support
If you're a Docker DDC or CS Engine customer, you don't need to upgrade to
Docker Enterprise to continue to get support. We will continue to support customers
with valid subscriptions whether the subscription covers Docker EE or
Commercially Supported Docker. You can choose to stay with your current
deployed version, or you can upgrade to the latest Docker EE version. For
more info, see [Scope of Coverage and Maintenance
Lifecycle](https://success.docker.com/Policies/Scope_of_Support).
