Explain how Salesforce provides new releases to their platform.
Salesforce updates their platform 3 times per year (Winter, Spring, Summer), and includes new features or other improvements. All Salesforce orgs are automatically updated with the latest release (according to the release schedule emailed to administrators) for free.
As an administrator, it is a best practice to review release training and read through release notes.
