Upgrade thoughts

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I’ve never upgraded an Elastic Stack before, and it seems quite challenging!
Is it just me who thinks that? I guess there’s room for improvement.
I’m currently running version 8.15 and considering an upgrade to 8.19.

Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Please check this documentation. It’s well prepared to prepare Elastic Stack upgrade. Upgrade your deployment, cluster, or orchestrator | Elastic Docs

Upgrade from 8.15 to 8.19 is a minor version upgrade which is the easiest one. Multiple major version upgrade can be a real headache. :slight_smile:
