Qdrant Version Upgrade

Qdrant has the following guarantees about version compatibility:

  • Major and minor versions of Qdrant and SDK are expected to match. For example, Qdrant 1.17.x is compatible with SDK 1.17.x.

  • Qdrant is tested for backward compatibility between minor versions. For example, Qdrant 1.17.x should be compatible with SDK 1.16.x. Qdrant server 1.16.x is also expected to be compatible with SDK 1.17.x, but only for the subset of features that were available in 1.16.x.

  • For migration to the next minor version, it is recommended to first upgrade the SDK to the next minor version and then upgrade the Qdrant server.

  • Storage compatibility is only guaranteed for one minor version. For example, data stored with Qdrant 1.16.x is expected to be compatible with Qdrant 1.17.x. If you need to migrate more than one minor version, it is required do the upgrade step by step, one minor version at a time. For example, to migrate from 1.15.x to 1.17.x, you need to first upgrade to 1.16.x and then to 1.17.x. Note: Qdrant Cloud automates this process, so you can directly upgrade from 1.15.x to 1.17.x without intermediate steps.

  • A Qdrant cluster with a replication factor of 2 or higher can be upgraded without downtime by performing a rolling upgrade. This means that you can upgrade one node at a time while the other nodes continue to serve requests. This allows you to maintain availability of your application during the upgrade process.

For managing Qdrant version upgrades in Qdrant Cloud, you can use the qcloud CLI tool.

Frequently asked

Do SDK and server versions need to match?
Major and minor versions should match (e.g. SDK 1.17.x with Qdrant 1.17.x). Backward compatibility is tested one minor version back, so SDK 1.17.x works with Qdrant 1.16.x and vice versa, though the newer SDK's features won't be available on the older server.
What's the upgrade order for SDK and server?
Upgrade the SDK to the next minor version first, then upgrade the Qdrant server.
Can I upgrade multiple minor versions at once?
Storage compatibility is only guaranteed one minor version forward. To upgrade from 1.15.x to 1.17.x, you must go 1.15.x → 1.16.x → 1.17.x step by step, unless you're using Qdrant Cloud which automates multi-version upgrades.
Can I upgrade without downtime?
Yes, if your cluster has a replication factor of 2 or higher, you can perform a rolling upgrade by upgrading one node at a time while others continue serving requests.
