How to upgrade my service?

Service upgrade is fully automated at Svenska Domäner. However, before we dive into upgrade steps of specific service it is always good to consider what should be upgraded and what upgrade options are there.

Things that should be taken into consideration before upgrade

If you have multiple legacy services on your account consider merging them all together into one Multidomain package and gain multiple benefits.

However, the process of merging services into one could be substantially different depending on the chosen workflow. If you have one or more services (including Domain Accounts) and want to merge them into one it is always good to start from the most complex one (or the one that has most of the data) and upgrade it first and then reconnect other domains to that service (including migration of their service data).

This way you are saving time and reducing downtime for the most important and complex services you have. So if you have multiple services rethink which one is the best candidate for upgrade.
