What is an update, anyway?
When you use a computer or a smart phone"The update is ready.In addition to the flexible content creation, personalized learning will boost each employee's understanding and knowledge by customizable settings."Please update."Suddenly, comments such as"What is it?Have you ever wondered what's going on? If you use a lot of apps on your smartphone, something might be updated every day. In general, an update is a minor improvement or bug fix for that service (app or software).
For example, bugs are fixed, new anti-viruses are implemented, and small features are added.
What is versioning?
On the other hand, an upgrade is a major improvement or update, such as the addition of new features or a change in design or usage.
For example, support for Windows 7 has recently expired. For about a year now, I've been hearing a lot of guidance about moving to Windows 10 because Windows 7 support is expiring.
If you have moved from Windows 7 to Windows 10, you are upgrading. Even if it is the same Windows, there are a lot of differences between 7 and 10.
For example"The Start menu has changed, the startup is faster, and security has been enhanced with Microsoft Edge.has been installed, etc.It's like a completely new and different product.You can think of this as a major improvement and update as an upgrade.
incidentally"Upgrade."The word "upgrade" seems to be Japanese English and English speaking people cannot understand it. If you want to express the same meaning in English, it is "upgrade". If you want to express the same meaning in English, it is "upgrade" (or just "upgrade").
The Difference Between Majors and Minors
Updates are sometimes referred to as "major updates" and "minor updates", and version upgrades as "major version upgrades" and "minor version upgrades".
Which word to use depends on the company releasing the service, and the nuances of the details vary. Basically, if it's labeled "major", it's a major change and if it's labeled "minor", it's a minor change.
