Before upgrading to CKAN 2.12, check five small things: revision history, CSRF in custom forms, duplicate emails, DataStore permissions, custom validators and extension code.

Checked in advance, the upgrade is a routine afternoon.

CKAN 2.12 is out, with 8 security fixes.

Running 2.10? It has reached end of life, and 2.10.11 is its final release. Install it now, then plan your move to 2.12.

Running 2.11? Install the latest 2.11 patch. It's still supported.

Shiny new dashboard is completely useless if it's plugged into a data swamp.

The front-end tool takes 10 minutes. Building a resilient backend pipeline that decision-makers can actually trust takes real data engineering.

Run a CKAN portal but not its code? Three things in 2.12 matter: 8 security fixes, big exports that stay fast, and files stored where you choose.

Fix security first. Upgrade next.

CKAN 2.12 ships Midnight Blue, the first big redesign of CKAN's interface since 2.0. Opt-in now, the default in 3.0.

Search and facets update without a full page reload. Test it on staging before 3.0 makes the switch for you.
