Edition compatibility

The application edition manager supports only compatible application upgrades for edition roll out, which means that interruption-free upgrade is only for editions that are compatible with previous editions.

With concurrent activation, you can host multiple editions of the same application simultaneously with each edition supporting a distinct, non-intersecting set of users. However, concurrent activation might not provide interruption-free upgrade.

Consider the following compatibility issues when you deploy editions:
