Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server supports PostgreSQL versions 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15. Postgres community releases a new major version containing new features about once a year. Additionally, major version receives periodic bug fixes in the form of minor releases. Minor version upgrades include changes that are backward-compatible with existing applications. Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server periodically updates the minor versions during customer’s maintenance window. Major version upgrades are more complicated than minor version upgrades as they can include internal changes and new features that may not be backward-compatible with existing applications.

## Overview
21+
2022
Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server Postgres has now introduced in-place major version upgrade feature that performs an in-place upgrade of the server with just a click. In-place major version upgrade simplifies the upgrade process minimizing the disruption to users and applications accessing the server. In-place upgrades are a simpler way to upgrade the major version of the instance, as they retain the server name and other settings of the current server after the upgrade, and don't require data migration or changes to the application connection strings. In-place upgrades are faster and involve shorter downtime than data migration.
