Server/Studio Compatibility

Hello All,

Currently, we are running a Community server version 7.5.1, and we are using Studio 7.5.4.

Where can I find information about the Studio version supported by this server version? I'd like to use the latest Studio version, without losing the capability to deploy to this server version.

Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your answer, Pierrick.

But still, it's not clear for me which Studio version this specific server (7.5.1) will support.

It's clear and proven I can deploy from Studio 7.5.4 to server 7.5.1. We are doing that for about a year now, and everything works perfectly.

So, our question is, could I deploy from Studio 7.6.0 to this 7.5.1. server? From Studio 7.6.1 to 7.5.1. server? And so on.

I was hoping you could clarify, for instance, that I can deploy from any Studio with the same major number. That is from any Studio 7.X.Y to Server 7.U.W. This is just an example.

We're not talking about migrating our current platform, but to know up to which Studio version I could update without having to upgrade our platform. In other words, being aware when should we upgrade if we wanted to take advantage of new Studio features.

Any pointer on this is very welcomed.

The question is not "which Studio version this specific server (7.5.1) will support" but "which Server version this specific Studio (7.5.4) will support". And the answer is 7.5.4 only (see my previous answer).

The confusion comes from the fact that you are doing something that Bonita should forbid and by that I mean to deploy a process built on a 7.5.4 Studio on a 7.5.1 Server. I strongly suggest to migrate your Server 7.5.1 to 7.5.4 and go through a regular migration when you want to upgrade later on (both Studio and Server at the same time).

Bonita only provides backward compatibility.

To illustrate: if you define your elements from a Studio of version 7.5.4 it is required to have a Server to 7.5.4 to run.

This question is especially relevant at migration time. The main take away is that the migration has to be done for the Servers and the Bonita Repositories using respectively the migration tool and Studio built-in features. There is a complete documentation about this subject here.
