# Version
Grafana Loki uses Semantic Versioning. The next version can be determined
by looking at the current version and incrementing it. When the release is a new `major` version (for example, after 2.9.1 we decide to go 3.0.0 instead of 2.9.2) this should not be done.
You need to set two environmental values `VERSION` and `VERSION_PREFIX` to do the release process.
## Version
To determine the `VERSION` for a Stable Release or Patch Release, use the Semantic Version `A.B.C`.
- Examples
- For example, `2.9.0` is the Stable Release `VERSION` for the v2.9.0 release.
- For example, `2.9.1` is the first Patch Release `VERSION` for the v2.9.0 release.
## Version Prefix
To determine the `VERSION PREFIX`, use only the major and minor version `A.B.x`.
- Examples
- `2.9.x`
