Im not sure what u exactly mean. But wcs supports wlcs up to 7.0.x only..Prime the newest versions. And it is a newer development with more features maybe and supports also switches etc.

Just to add, you can purchase WCS anymore. Moving forward, you should be on Prime Infrastructure 2.1 and or Prime Infrastrucure 2.2 when it gets released.

Hi Hasan,

In terms of features...You can say PI is more advanced version of WCS and NCS. All the stuff possible in WCS/NCS can be done on PI as well.

But from the architecture perspective , there are differences. If I remember correctly , WCS is based on 32 bit OS while NCS and PI based on 64 bit OS. For the same reason you cannot do inline upgrade from WCS to PI via any path and will have to change the platform/Hardware itself before moving to PI. However , inline upgrade from NCS to PI is possible if we follow the correct path.
