nounpl: targeted updates
atualização direcionada

This term is primarily used in technology and software development contexts in both Brazil and the USA. In Brazil, tech companies commonly use 'atualização direcionada' when communicating with users about limited-scope updates. The term reflects the modern approach to software maintenance where updates are often released incrementally rather than as massive overhauls, which is more efficient and reduces user disruption.
