@Dharanidharan Thanks for the reply.
Do we need to consider all of the information of Upgrade tools for Application Upgrade Utilities and General Utilities. Can you please give idea for this

I hope it's required, as it is mentioned after upgrading from the 7.x version. Please ensure to go through the upgrade guide and everything is taken care (pre and post upgrade)

@PIRASHATH88 To upgrade from PRPC 8.8.5 to Pega Infinity 24.2.0, start by reviewing the Pega Upgrade Guide to understand compatibility and infrastructure requirements. Take a full backup of the database and application server before starting. Stop all Pega nodes and use the prpcUtils or migrate.sh script to perform the upgrade, ensuring both the schema and application components are updated. Update the prweb.war file and server configurations as needed. After the upgrade, run the Rule Resave and Revalidate utility to ensure all rules are compatible with the new version. Perform smoke testing to verify core functionalities and custom components. Check for deprecated features and address any compatibility issues. Validate performance and ensure the system operates as expected. Start with a lower environment like DEV before moving to production. Maintain proper documentation throughout and ensure rollback plans are ready in case issues arise
