Database changes in Sitefinity CMS

IMPORTANT: As of Sitefinity 15.0, database changes are only available through Sitefinity CMS customer support, and are no longer updated in the documentation. For more information on how to contact customer support, see Sitefinity support guide.

This article provides a detailed reference of all Database changes introduced throughout the Sitefinity CMS official releases. Database changes are grouped by product version. When upgrading your Sitefinity CMS website you must review the Database changes applicable to all versions between your current version and the one you're upgrading to. For example, when you upgrade from version 8.0 to 11.1 all Database changes for versions between 8.1, 8.2...11.1 apply. 

To view the Database changes relevant for your upgrade scenario, select from the drop-down menus below your current Sitefinity CMS version and the Sitefinity CMS version you're targeting to upgrade to. The Database changes relevant to you will be listed accordingly.
