release schedule

Rollout timing plan

A release schedule is a planned timeline for when products, updates, or content will be made available to the public.

Software companies publish release schedules for new versions; film studios announce release schedules for upcoming movies.

The term implies a sequence of planned releases rather than a single date: The studio pushed back its summer release schedule.

In manufacturing and media, staying on release schedule is a measure of operational discipline.
