Upgrading to Central v2024.2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are no required special steps related to this upgrade. However, there are some optional changes that you may want to know about or opt into.

1. Changes to .env no longer require rebuilding

**********************************************

If you make changes to your `.env` file to configure Central as described in the :doc:`setup and configuration instructions <central-install-digital-ocean>`, you no longer have to rebuild Central for the changes to take effect. Instead, a stop and restart is now enough:

.. code-block:: bash

$ docker compose stop
$ docker compose up -d

2. Files can be stored in S3-compatible storage
************************************************

By default, Central stores all of its data in a database, including files like XLSForm definitions and images attached to submissions. If you have or plan on collecting a lot of files, you may prefer to store these in separate storage to reduce load on the database and possibly reduce hosting costs. See instructions on :ref:`configuring S3-compatible storage <central-install-digital-ocean-s3>`_.

3. Docker images now published
*******************************

If you use your own infrastructure for orchestrating the different components needed to run Central, you may prefer to use published Docker images. You can now find these `on GHCR <https://github.com/orgs/getodk/packages?tab=packages&repo_name=central>`_.
