Upgrade Confluence 6.8.0

Question

We are currently using Confluence server 6.0.3  and have been recommended to upgrade to 6.6.3. But we would like to upgrade to 6.8.0 as we want to have Confluence Server mobile app.

Could you please give us some advise on the upgrading ? Thanks

Well Thu - I suggest you do the following;

* Release this upgrade note for 6.8 https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-6-8-upgrade-notes-946014208.html 
* Read the release note for 6.8                    https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-6-8-release-notes-946014166.html 
* Do an upgrade in your Test Instance if you are not confident.
* Ensure you take proper backup - both xml and filesystem
* Ensure you know all the customization - if there are any, so that you can reapply the customization.
