But there are plenty of other really good reasons you should consider upgrading sooner rather than later.
[/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”How to Overcome Obstacles” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%28%%” icon_color=”#418ebe” icon_placement=”left” content_max_width=”680px” _builder_version=”3.19.4″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”16px” body_font=”||||||||”]The list of reasons why you haven’t upgraded yet is long and probably justified. We’ll answer these questions and more: Where do I start? What version and edition? Do I need to keep paying for Enterprise Edition? How do we minimize downtime? How do we know what will break? What questions are we not asking?
[/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”How to Plan Your Upgrade” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%28%%” icon_color=”#418ebe” icon_placement=”left” content_max_width=”680px” _builder_version=”3.19.4″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”16px” body_font=”||||||||”]We’ll talk about doing a health check/review of your instance (why bring over the bad stuff?), testing to see what could break, deprecated features, reviewing performance, planning hardware, and document everything.
[/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”How to Execute Your Upgrade” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%28%%” icon_color=”#418ebe” icon_placement=”left” content_max_width=”680px” _builder_version=”3.19.4″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”16px” body_font=”||||||||”]You’ll learn some installation best practices, how to create and follow a checklist, how to create, practice, and understand a rollback plan, plan your downtime, and test before releasing to the wild.
[/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”What to Do After Your Upgrade” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%28%%” icon_color=”#418ebe” icon_placement=”left” content_max_width=”680px” _builder_version=”3.19.4″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”16px” body_font=”||||||||”]You’ve come this far, so don’t let it fall apart! You’ll learn the importance of regular health checks, best practices for maintenance, and how to set up alerting & monitoring. You’ll see how to plan for regular patching and updates and we’ll wrap up with suggestions for using some of those new features.
