Sitecore E-Commerce Services

Note
Sitecore Ecommerce Service (SES) Product Update
With the release of Sitecore Commerce Connect in 2014, this has become the future of eCommerce connectivity for Sitecore and SES moved into a deprecated state. This change has been communicated to all commerce Technical Partners and they all have plans to move newer versions of their products away from SES.

What is currently supported?
SES 2.2 for Sitecore 7.2 is the last officially supported release by Sitecore. SES 2.2 will be supported through the end of Sitecore 7.2’s published support lifecycle.

What about SES for Sitecore 7.5 and Sitecore 8?
We have just completed a simultaneous community release of SES for both 7.5 and 8.0. At this point, the code has moved to open source status and has been released on GitHub for customers and partners to support themselves and take their solutions forward if they choose to.

Installation packages and source code:

What new features are in SES for 7.5 and 8.0?
There are no new features in these releases, they are purely for platform compatibility. Moving forward, all new commerce functionality is being built into Commerce Connect and our commerce solutions Sitecore Commerce powered by Microsoft Dynamics® and Sitecore Commerce powered by Commerce Server.

How can a customer or partner get support moving forward?
To continue to get official product support, they will need to remain on version 7.2 which is the last supported release. Or they can support themselves using the community editions now available.

Where can I send questions about this?
As always, please address all questions to your usual Sitecore representative or contact Sitecore directly at http://www.sitecore.net/about/contact.html
