This guide details the specifics related to managing MongoDB on your managed Cloud Server, particularly regarding the version lifecycle.

Introduction

• Any new installation of the application deploys MongoDB version 7.0 (or higher) by default.

Upgrading from version 6 to 7

It is not possible to perform an automatic upgrade from version 6 to version 7 directly from your interface.

You have two options:

1. Order a new Cloud Server: it will natively include version 7, and you can then migrate your data to it.
2. Reinstall the application: uninstall and then reinstall MongoDB on the current server.

Backups and responsibility

As an administrator, you are fully responsible for managing and ensuring the integrity of your data.

Before performing any operation (including reinstallation):

• Perform your own backups and exports (dumps) of your databases.
• Plan for the manual import of your data once the new version is active.
