Select upgrade guide
You can only directly upgrade RapidMiner Server to the latest version from version 9.1 and above. If you want to upgrade from version 7.x, 8.x or 9.0 do the upgrade to RapidMiner Server 9.1 first.
Future updates will be much easier due to the new upgrade procedure that was introduced with version 9.2.

The following instructions are recommended to be followed for any upgrade starting from 9.1 and above.
