Don’t Put Off Your PostgreSQL 9.5 Upgrade Any Longer
PostgreSQL is a popular open-source database that has a 30-year development history.
Now is the time to make the next PostgreSQL upgrade to v13.
End of Life is Here: Update PostgreSQL As Soon As Possible
Organizations trust this database to have outstanding performance, reliability, and an ever-growing feature set. As new versions of PostgreSQL release, the earlier ones reach End of Life (EOL). PostgreSQL v9.5 was released in 2016 and was added to the EOL list on February 11, 2021.
If you’re still running this version of PostgreSQL, it’s past time to look at the consequences of working with EOL databases, the benefits of moving to PostgreSQL v13, and what you need to know to make your database upgrade process as smooth as possible.
Putting off a PostgreSQL 9.5 upgrade sets you further behind your competitors, as you won’t be able to use modernized database features and the productivity improvements that come with them. Everything from development costs to recruiting expenses goes up, as it’s harder to find specialists that have hands-on experience with older database technology. Plus, you open yourself up to a greater risk of data breaches.
In this white paper, you will learn:
- What EOL means for your PostgreSQL 9.5 support
- The dangers of relying on outdated databases
- How to prepare for the PostgreSQL v13 upgrade
