Hi Team ,

Hey @Ventrapragada_RajyaS :wave:

Database update scripts are are NOT cumulative. Application library updates are cumulative and don’t necessarily require sequential minor version updates. You can just apply your target minor application libraries. You should, however, check the migration guide of EVERY intermediate minor version to understand all noteworthy changes in behavior.

Check out the documentation right here:

Thank you @Hafflgav for you update.
I just have one more doubt.
To acheive this update from 7.13 to 7.20. following the below steps. let me know if needed any thing more.

  1. All the Database updates from 7.13 to 7.20.
  2. Dependency jars or camunda library version upgrades.

And what to know if I update the above 2 steps, do i need to redeploy all my existing process or they will work with out any changes.
What will happen to my running instances at the time of update.

Hey @Ventrapragada_RajyaS :wave:
When doing the updates all your processes should stay “deployed” and all running instances should be running in the updated version as well.

Please keep in mind to do the database updates on after another for each minor release.
When it comes to updating the dependencies, make sure that there are no breaking changes in the APIs, which might cause some problems.

I would recommend backing up the database before running any script. The same applies to the source code. :slight_smile:
