SNOMED CT Release Services support the creation, validation and bundling of SNOMED CT release packages in a standard format that can be imported into terminology servers and other applications.

Terminology releases are the final step of any content development process, it makes the content available to the users. SNOMED content is distributed in RF2 format, including a full version maintaining all historical states, a snapshot with the last state for all components, and a delta with only the last state of the modified components. Creating valid release files packages requires following strict format specifications about separators, encoding, new lines, headers, file naming conventions, package folder structure, etc. Release manager tools produce valid RF2 packages and maintain the historical integrity of the releases.

SNOMED International Release Service
