Check Driver Compatibility
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Before you upgrade MongoDB, check that you're using a MongoDB
|newversion|-compatible driver. Consult the `driver documentation
<https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/>`_ for your specific driver to verify
compatibility with MongoDB |newversion|.

Upgraded deployments that run on incompatible drivers might encounter
unexpected or undefined behavior.

Preparedness
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Before beginning your upgrade, see the |compatibility| document to
ensure that your applications and deployments are compatible with
MongoDB |newversion|. Resolve the incompatibilities in your deployment before
starting the upgrade.
