While preparing for the SonarQube 2025.1 upgrade, we came across the breaking change Jira , which left us a bit confused.

Currently we are using Postgres 14.17 which is compatibel with Sonarqube 2025.1 .

We are currently using PostgreSQL 14.17, which is compatible with SonarQube 2025.1.

Could you clarify what is meant by “database migration” in this context? Are there any specific steps we need to follow as part of the SonarQube upgrade process, apart from taking a backup?anything specific for Data migration or it will be part of upgrade process?

Migration refers specifically to database migration, meaning updating your database schema from your current version to one compatible with version 2025.1. This process does not upgrade the underlying database engine; it only updates the tables used by your SQ instance.
