Sanasa -

Your upgrade difficulty will be determined by your current application. No way to provide specific information for your site.

A starting place: http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=... for general information.

Suggest you hire someone very familiar with upgrading older Cache systems on a temp basis to help prepare an upgrade roadmap and then make the upgrade.

Since so big difference between this versions, and you may caught many incompatibilities, I would very recommend to install new instance and move all your data and settings from the old one. And then check everything in your application very carefully.

Dmitry is correct: do not try to upgrade on your production server. You may end up with a mess. Create a new server, move routines/globals/classes to the new server and test extensively.

Difficulty in upgrading Cache depends completely on your application. If you use exotic features like $ZU, calls to the OS, third party software, discontinued functions, it will be harder to upgrade.
