Users are able to specify the upgrade schedule for their ClickHouse Cloud service by subscribing to a specific release channel. There are three release channels, and the user has the ability to configure the day and time of the week for upgrades with the **scheduled upgrades** feature.
43+
44+
The three release channels are:
45+
- The [**fast release channel**](#fast-release-channel-early-upgrades) for early access to upgrades.
46+
- The [**regular release channel**](#regular-release-channel) is the default, and upgrades on this channel start two weeks after the fast release channel upgrades. If your service on the Scale and Enterprise tier does not have a release channel set, it is on the regular release channel by default.
47+
- The [**slow release channel**](#slow-release-channel-deferred-upgrades) is for deferred release. Upgrades on this channel occur two weeks after the regular release channel upgrades.

We offer a **Slow release** channel if you would like your services to receive upgrades after the regular release schedule.
93+
94+
Specifically, services will:
95+
96+
- Be upgraded after the Fast and Regular release channels roll-outs are complete
97+
- Receive ClickHouse releases ~ 2 weeks after the regular release
98+
- Be meant for customers that want additional time to test ClickHouse releases on their non-production environments before the production upgrade. Non-production environments can either get upgrades on the Fast or the Regular release channel for testing and validation.
