An Incremental Parallel Upgrade for OnBase is an approach that can substantially mitigate risk in OnBase upgrades. Synchronous upgrades must occur in a very limited time window in order to limit the disruption of business processes. If anything goes wrong, a delay in the upgrade could have a significant impact on an organization. For this reason, an Incremental Parallel Upgrade is recommended for OnBase upgrades. In an Incremental Parallel Upgrade, the previous version of OnBase remains available while the new version is slowly implemented and tested. With this type of upgrade, the previous version is still available for use, which reduces the risk that organizations will be unable to perform their work.
For more information about Incremental Parallel Upgrades, see the Mitigating Risk in OnBase Upgrades guide, available on Community.
