Before starting Magento 2 upgrade services, a business must prepare its store setup properly. The server must support OpenSearch 2.19, as Elasticsearch 8 is now outdated. The database should run on MySQL 8.4 or MariaDB 11.4 LTS for better compatibility. The team should perform the upgrade in a staging environment to avoid issues on the live store. The team must take complete backups of the database and files before proceeding. These steps help reduce errors and keep store data safe during the upgrade process.
