Abstract

A requirement for a versioned resource is fulfilled, particularly in light of compatibility constraints of the requirement. Versions of the versioned resource are associated with compatibility information, such as a feature version and a service version, for example. In fulfilling the requirement, compatibility logic may be applied to identify versions that are compatible with the requirement, and selection logic may be applied to select a preferred version from the compatible versions.
