5. Set the the support plans, and maintenance windows for OS & software updates and give a name to your new service

OS updates include updates to the linuxLinux kernel, security patches, and other important maintenance to keep your instance running smoothly.

Software updates update the code of the open-source application itself. We respect semantic versioning, so we will only implement minor and patch updates, in order to avoid non-breaking changes.

Maintenance windows are specified in UTC
