Upgrade actions
Upgrade actions include:
- Self-service - Customer must conduct the necessary action to upgrade.
- Scheduled - Acquia will schedule, notify, and conduct the necessary action to upgrade.
- Product/Feature retirement - The product or feature will cease to be available on the date indicated, regardless of any action by the customer.
