How fast is your website? 

Are you sure it’s fast enough? Or is it costing you business?

Unfortunately, right now there is no simple way to upgrade Sitecore versions with a click of a button. There are many steps involved that all work in tandem in order to successfully deploy the upgraded version of your Sitecore environment.
