Terms of upgrade

Customers are willing to choose an appropriate time for upgrading.

Upgrade packages contain required fixes or improvements in the Sitecore Managed Cloud Containers infrastructure.

Sitecore might provide customers with upgrades for every version. Sitecore Cloud Operations engineers release upgrades as necessary when fixing issues or introducing new features.

Upgrades through pipelines must be installed one by one version. When skipping at least one upgrade version, customers must follow guidelines from Update Managed Cloud manually.

Customers can install any upgrade package for their Sitecore instance.

Important note: While performing the upgrade, it is possible to replace the existing files without any conflict when creating a new branch. To prevent this, the following points must be taken into account:

• Customization of Sitecore roles must be handled while preparing a pull request with upgrades by the customer.
• It is impossible to have a merge conflict in modules because they are not present in the customer repository.
• It is not expected that some custom roles are overridden by the upgrade package.
