    2 Year Modern Lifecycle Source: Microsoft
    Business Central (BC) 2025 release wave 1 (version 26) is the 11th major release that is fully AL-based. BC 2019 release wave 2 (version 15) marked the release in which C/AL was replaced by AL. The classic development or C/SIDE, was deprecated. From an application perspective, Business Central is now extension-based only. It's base application is delivered as an AL extension. Also, application functionality that isn't related to the business logic has moved into separate modules and combined into the "System Application" extension. This change influences how you do the upgrade with this release.
