A version without fixes, abandoned plugins and a previous attempt that caused two days of downtime.
A path with an intermediate step, replaced plugins, tests validated by teachers and an upgrade during vacation.
A secure, current platform, without interrupting classes.
Frequently asked questions
Will I lose my courses or grades?
You shouldn't: we take a full backup, upgrade a test environment first and have a rollback plan.
Will the platform be down?
Only during the maintenance window we agree with you.
My platform is already with Edu Labs. Do I need this?
No: upgrades are already part of your service. This service is for platforms with another provider or on your own servers.
