Information

Issue: Inquiry about the end of support for ObjectStore 2013 and upgrade path to ObjectStore 2025.1

End of Support Date: December 31, 2025

Resolution Steps:

  1. Verify End of Support:
    • ObjectStore 2013, including Update 25, will no longer be supported after December 31, 2025.
  2. Upgrade Path to ObjectStore 2025.1:
    • Perform an in-place upgrade by installing ObjectStore 2025.1 over the existing 2013.x version.
    • Consult the release notes for any version-specific changes.
  3. 32-bit to 64-bit Migration:
    • Switch your build target to 64-bit in Visual Studio.
    • Link against the 64-bit ObjectStore libraries in the 2025.1 package.
    • Regenerate ObjectStore schemas with 64-bit binaries.
    • Uninstall the 32-bit server before installing the 64-bit server.
  4. Database Migration:
    • Test with a copy of your database using the 64-bit build.
    • If errors occur, export data from the 32-bit system and import it into a new 64-bit database.
    • Avoid using standard ObjectStore backup utilities for cross-architecture moves.
  5. Export/Import Tooling:
    • Create a custom program to export data from the 32-bit database and import it into a 64-bit database.

Note: The ObjectStore C++ API remains backward-compatible, so no code changes are expected during the upgrade.
