There are lots of examples of API versioning for SAAS type architectures.
The versioning exists so both new and old APIs can be supported for customers.
And usually the versioning goes



v1.1
v1.2
v2.0


And the numbering indicates how impactful the change is?



However, I am wondering if there is an example where the Server itself can also have multiple versions. So some customers are on:



Nov-2018-fix2


Others on



June-2017-fix3


The API versioning then gets more complicated. Because if you start with v1.0 or whatever keep increasing and then you need to back patch, what happens?



So looking for industry example, if possible.



Thanks
