Just two months later, the Red Hat Cloud Suite tooling known as the Cloud Deployment Planner has been updated to provide you with all the RHV 4.0 details you need to plan your next deployment.
With the streamlined user interface, you have the compatibility and lifecycle information with other Red Hat Cloud Suite components at your fingertips.

In the figures here you see Red Hat CloudForms management being compared to RHV 4.0. Once selected, the Feature and Service Compatibility matrix will appear below with green for the features you can rely on, red for the ones that are not supported. Some might be partially supported, such as in a tech preview phase, which will be shown with a small information icon.
If you select the Lifecycle Compatibility tab, you will have an overview of the supported duration of each selected component version. This information is crucial when planning what versions to deploy and ensuring you are not betting on a version that is about to reach end of life.
