Alpha is a limited availability test for releases before they are cleared for widespread use.
By Alpha, all significant design issues are resolved and we are in the process of verifying
functionality. Alpha customers need to apply for access, agree to applicable terms, and have
their projects whitelisted. Alpha releases don’t have to be feature complete, no SLAs are
provided, and there are no technical support obligations, but they will be far enough along
that customers can actually use them in test environments or for limited-use tests -- just like
they would in normal production cases.
