wso2esb 5.0.0

[srinivaskancharla]

Dears,
We have been using wso2esb 5.0.0 for our projects. As i see from support life cycle the support has extended but not clearly said till which date. Could you confirm what is the support on wso2esb now.

Also wanted to migrate the solution from wso2esb to other possible module which are having regular updaates.
Our applicaiton is supported for two types of deployment

1. VM deployment ( where it uses wso2sb 5.0.0) --> here we want to replace wso2esb with latest wso2 modules.
2. container deployment( where it uses wso2mi 4.1.0) --> This is same code base but enabled container support by using wso2mi 4.1.0. code which is compatible in wso2esb is also compatible in wso2mi
3. What is the difference between wso2mi and wso2esb, if i use wso2mi what other features I will not get which are part of wso2esb.
4. Is there any path for migrating wso2esb to wso2mi.

Please support for these technical queries.
