Confluence server LTS v7.13.0 download

Ming Zhang_5s5wno

I try to upgrade the Atlassian Confluence server to LTS v7.13.0. The binary download page:

https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/download-archives

shows "Confluence Server & Data Center Download Archives" with two links:

1. Long Term Support release Confluence 7.13.0

2. Latest release Confluence 7.13.0

both point to the same version of the Confluence binary.

My question is:

1. Is this Confluence server or data center version? or do both use the same binary?

2. Does the LTS version and latest release happen to be the same for now? When new subversion is released, they may be different?

Thanks

Yes, a Server install is now exactly the same as a single-node Data Center setup! (OK, with DC, you're probably going to want to think about load balancers and other nodes, but off-the-shelf, the software is the same thing)

Since 6.something-I-can't-remember, you've been able to turn an active server install into a DC node by simply applying a DC licence to it.

Yes, just for now, the LTS and latest release are the same version. Eventually, 7.14 will come out, and 7.13 will remain the current LTS for a load more increments after that!

(By the way, the point releases - the x in 7.13.x remain LTS as well - you'll see 7.13.1, 7.13.2, 7.13.3 and so-on - these are all LTS releases because 7.13 is the LTS)

Thank you so much for such a quick and clear answer. It is good to know that the Confluence server version and datacenter version use the same binary. I assume it only starts with version 7.13.0.

If I only need to run a single-node data center setup, can it simply replace my server version license with the datacenter license after I upgrade my current Confluence server v7.4.1 to v7.13.0, and then I need not worry about the server version deprecation after 2024 anymore?

Thanks

Correct, yes, you swap to a single node DC and you won't need to think about server deprecation.

Does this (single-node DC = server version, so license conversion works) also apply to Jira, Bitbucket, and Crowd? Thanks
