=== Multiple Intelligence Stream (IS) Builders

Prisma Cloud introduces versioning for the Intelligence Stream (IS) to ensure compatibility across different Console and Defender versions.
Prisma Cloud has introduced versioning for Intelligence Stream (IS) to ensure compatibility across different Console and Defender versions.

The purpose of Intelligence Stream (IS) versioning is to:

* *Maintain functionality for older Consoles and Defenders*: IS versioning ensures that older Consoles and Defenders continue to operate properly, even if they are unable to support the latest intelligence feeds, such as changes in external data feed formats.
* *Maintain functionality for older Consoles and Defenders*: IS versioning ensures that older Consoles and Defenders continue to operate properly, even if they cannot support the latest intelligence feeds. For example, if the intelligence feed undergoes a change in its external data format, this change will not disrupt the functionality of older Consoles and Defenders.

* *Reduce disruptions*: Versioning helps minimize disruptions caused by updates, such as changes in downloaded JSON file fields that could impact CVE accuracy or result in duplicate CVEs.

Intelligence Stream (IS) versions will be aligned with specific Console versions. For example, older 31.xx and 32.xx Consoles will be supported by the IS version released for Console 33.00.

To ensure consistency in vulnerability reporting across all Intelligence Stream (IS) versions, the following approach is implemented:

* *New Intelligence Stream (IS) logic updates*: These updates will only apply to the latest IS versions. When customers upgrade to the latest Console version, they will receive the most recent IS logic updates.
* *New Intelligence Stream (IS) logic updates*: Enhancements, bug fixes, and updates to the IS logic, will always be applied to the latest IS version. When customers upgrade to the latest Console version, they will receive the most recent IS logic updates.

* *Vulnerability data*: All IS versions will continue to provide up-to-date vulnerability information, and changes in IS logic or algorithms will not affect the vulnerability metrics and reporting in the Console.

The following table lists the Prisma Console releases and their corresponding Intelligence Stream (IS) versions. The IS versions are automatically aligned with the specified Console versions.

*Note*: Updates related to the Intelligence Stream will be notified in the *Intelligence Stream Updates* section of the Prisma Cloud Release Notes.
