Pro upgrades an existing Community installation in place — your database, your volume, your data. It is a real migration rather than a new image: Pro adds a Valkey service and a one-off schema promote. The promote accepts only certain Community releases as a starting point — currently 2.1.x and 2.2.x — and from any other version it stops without changing anything. The upgrade is one-way — there is no downgrade back to Community — so take a backup first, or try it on a copy. The step-by-step guide is in the customer center once you have a key, and lists the releases the promote accepts.
