You can opt for a single major Calypso upgrade to a later version. In this case, we upgrade your systems, including the database and bespoke code, to your preferred version without revising your updating processes.
You can also choose Calypso Project Simplify. Here, we ensure you’re prepared for continuous monthly rebasing, allowing you to benefit from regular, smaller updates. Major upgrades still take place once every 2 years.
Upgrading Calypso itself is a five-phase journey:
- Preparing for upgrade (prerequisites check, configuration setup)
- Upgrading the application (new version installation and configuration)
- Upgrading the database and migrating the data if necessary
- Validating and verifying the application configuration and database changes
- Deploying and verifying the application
If you partner with a Calypso upgrades company like Luxoft, the upgrading process is as follows:
- Preparation: Identifying the project’s objectives and scope and establishing a roadmap
- Upgrade: Updating the application and database to a new version
- Transformation: Implementing new features and functionality for the client’s operations
- Quality control: Validating application and database changes
An upgrade partner like Luxoft can also provide training for your in-house Calypso team post-upgrade.
