Abstract
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for event-based versioning and visibility for content releases. In general, embodiments of the invention categorize content releases, wherein each release can have a different designation, such as, for example, public, limited, limited for down-level clients, etc. Content (e.g., applications, store pages, ratings, reviews, etc.) offered by a content provider (e.g., an online store) can be associated with a specified operating system/store release. Different versions of the same content can potentially be associated with different specified operating system/store releases. When a content release is unveiled, the categorization for the content release can be updated so that the corresponding content is publicly available without changes to the content itself. Accordingly, content can be tied to a system event helping ensure a consistent view of the content and minimizing the number of operations for changing content visibility.
