Query regarding upgrade from Pega 8.5 to 8.7
Our current Prod is in Pega 6.3. We have migrated lower environments into Pega 8.5.3.
Now since Pega 8.7 is also available and client has some bandwidth before going live, they want to explore migration and dependencies of Pega 8.7.
Please, let us any expected problems when upgrading to 8.7.
And, can you please share installation guide for Pega 8.7 as well.
