When a quarterly release is deployed, each SnapLogic customer can decide to keep their existing version of Snaplex (Cloudplex or Groundplex) and Snap Packs for up to 30 four weeks + two days before upgrading. This time window allows you to ensure that the new Snaplex and Snap Packs are stable and working as expected before rolling them to all your Orgs.  

You can update Snaplex instances within an Org automatically by selecting the checkbox on Manager > Settings > Auto Upgrade Snaplex. This setting updates the Snaplex to the latest available version.

...

The release update has zero downtime for the SnapLogic platform during the quarterly release. This implementation means that there is not a maintenance notice on the SnapLogic UI; you can continue accessing the UI during the maintenance window and make updates. Your Pipelines, API calls, and Scheduled Tasks will continue to operate normally.

Note

To achieve zero downtime and high availability, your Snaplex should have multiple nodes. As with prior releases, if your Snaplex has only one JCC or FeedMaster node, then your node will be down for a few minutes during the Snaplex upgrade process. Hence, scheduled Pipelines and Ultra Tasks will not run while the node is down for a few minutes. No action is required by you and all operations will restart normally once the node is running again.

Grace Period for Upgrades

Four weeks and + two days after a quarterly release, Snaplex and Snap Pack upgrades automatically occur. Older Snaplex nodes and Snap Packs are automatically updated and Snaplex rollbacks are not allowed. Warning messages are provided well before the grace period ends. 

...

Note
  • All nodes within a Snaplex must be configured to run the same Snaplex version and Snap Pack versions.
  • Snap Catalog displays older version of Snap Packs until all JCCs in an Org upgrade to the new version. Newly published premium Snap Packs are not available in the Snap Catalog until all JCCs are upgraded. Pipeline execution do use the appropriate Snap Pack, based on whether the JCC is upgraded or not. 
  • Private Snap Packs can be used regardless of the JCC version.

To upgrade automatically to the latest available version, select the checkbox in Manager > Settings > Auto Upgrade Snaplex
