Jira / Confluence database compatibility

Question

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question.

DBA team wants to upgrade our database server to MySQL 5.7.23.

I have checked compatibility for our Jira (7.8.0) and Confluence (6.8.0) instances, they are compatible with MySQL 5.7. Does this mean they are compatible with 5.7.23 as well ?

Thanks

Antoine

Hi Jobin, thanks for your answer.

Can you confirm that the process simply consists of :

* Shut down jira
* Upgrade to 5.7.23
* Start jira

Thanks

It usually means the minor versions are supported. So, 5.7.x should work.

I would still recommend doing some testing with your specific version.
